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 114,530,207, 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 | 114,530,207 | |
| -1 | -114,530,207 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 114,530,207.
Example:
1 x 114,530,207 = 114,530,207
and
-1 x -114,530,207 = 114,530,207
Notice both answers equal 114,530,207
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 114,530,207 and divide it by 2:
114,530,207 ÷ 2 = 57,265,103.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 57,265,103.5 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 | 114,530,207 | |
| -1 | -114,530,207 |
Now, we try dividing 114,530,207 by 3:
114,530,207 ÷ 3 = 38,176,735.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,176,735.6667 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 | 114,530,207 | |
| -1 | -114,530,207 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
114,530,207 ÷ 4 = 28,632,551.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,632,551.75 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 | 114,530,207 | |
| -1 | 114,530,207 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 17 | 37 | 187 | 407 | 629 | 6,919 | 16,553 | 182,083 | 281,401 | 612,461 | 3,095,411 | 6,737,071 | 10,411,837 | 114,530,207 |
| -1 | -11 | -17 | -37 | -187 | -407 | -629 | -6,919 | -16,553 | -182,083 | -281,401 | -612,461 | -3,095,411 | -6,737,071 | -10,411,837 | -114,530,207 |
