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 114,550,465, 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 | 114,550,465 | |
| -1 | -114,550,465 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 114,550,465.
Example:
1 x 114,550,465 = 114,550,465
and
-1 x -114,550,465 = 114,550,465
Notice both answers equal 114,550,465
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 114,550,465 and divide it by 2:
114,550,465 ÷ 2 = 57,275,232.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 57,275,232.5 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 | 114,550,465 | |
| -1 | -114,550,465 |
Now, we try dividing 114,550,465 by 3:
114,550,465 ÷ 3 = 38,183,488.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,183,488.3333 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 | 114,550,465 | |
| -1 | -114,550,465 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
114,550,465 ÷ 4 = 28,637,616.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,637,616.25 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 | 114,550,465 | |
| -1 | 114,550,465 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 115 | 439 | 2,195 | 2,269 | 10,097 | 11,345 | 50,485 | 52,187 | 260,935 | 996,091 | 4,980,455 | 22,910,093 | 114,550,465 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -115 | -439 | -2,195 | -2,269 | -10,097 | -11,345 | -50,485 | -52,187 | -260,935 | -996,091 | -4,980,455 | -22,910,093 | -114,550,465 |
