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 115,025,677, 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 | 115,025,677 | |
| -1 | -115,025,677 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 115,025,677.
Example:
1 x 115,025,677 = 115,025,677
and
-1 x -115,025,677 = 115,025,677
Notice both answers equal 115,025,677
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 115,025,677 and divide it by 2:
115,025,677 ÷ 2 = 57,512,838.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 57,512,838.5 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 | 115,025,677 | |
| -1 | -115,025,677 |
Now, we try dividing 115,025,677 by 3:
115,025,677 ÷ 3 = 38,341,892.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,341,892.3333 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 | 115,025,677 | |
| -1 | -115,025,677 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
115,025,677 ÷ 4 = 28,756,419.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,756,419.25 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 | 115,025,677 | |
| -1 | 115,025,677 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 19 | 163 | 247 | 2,119 | 2,857 | 3,097 | 37,141 | 40,261 | 54,283 | 465,691 | 705,679 | 6,053,983 | 8,848,129 | 115,025,677 |
| -1 | -13 | -19 | -163 | -247 | -2,119 | -2,857 | -3,097 | -37,141 | -40,261 | -54,283 | -465,691 | -705,679 | -6,053,983 | -8,848,129 | -115,025,677 |
