Unfortunately, there's not simple formula to identifying all of the factors of a number and it can be a tedious process when trying to identify the divisors of larger numbers. To find the factor combinations of the number 114,351,265, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.
We start by creating a table and writing 1 on the left side and then the number we're trying to find the factors for on the right side in a table. Then, below that, write the numbers as a negative as well.
| 1 | 114,351,265 | |
| -1 | -114,351,265 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 114,351,265.
Example:
1 x 114,351,265 = 114,351,265
and
-1 x -114,351,265 = 114,351,265
Notice both answers equal 114,351,265
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 114,351,265 and divide it by 2:
114,351,265 ÷ 2 = 57,175,632.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 57,175,632.5 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 114,351,265 | |
| -1 | -114,351,265 |
Now, we try dividing 114,351,265 by 3:
114,351,265 ÷ 3 = 38,117,088.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,117,088.3333 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 114,351,265 | |
| -1 | -114,351,265 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
114,351,265 ÷ 4 = 28,587,816.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,587,816.25 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 114,351,265 | |
| -1 | 114,351,265 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 17 | 35 | 85 | 119 | 595 | 192,187 | 960,935 | 1,345,309 | 3,267,179 | 6,726,545 | 16,335,895 | 22,870,253 | 114,351,265 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -17 | -35 | -85 | -119 | -595 | -192,187 | -960,935 | -1,345,309 | -3,267,179 | -6,726,545 | -16,335,895 | -22,870,253 | -114,351,265 |
