How do I find the factor combinations of the number 115,333,104?

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 115,333,104, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.

Outside in Factoring

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.

1 115,333,104
-1 -115,333,104

Why are the negative numbers included?

When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 115,333,104.

Example:
1 x 115,333,104 = 115,333,104
and
-1 x -115,333,104 = 115,333,104
Notice both answers equal 115,333,104

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 115,333,104 and divide it by 2:

115,333,104 ÷ 2 = 57,666,552

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 57,666,552 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 57,666,552 115,333,104
-1 -2 -57,666,552 -115,333,104

Now, we try dividing 115,333,104 by 3:

115,333,104 ÷ 3 = 38,444,368

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,444,368 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 38,444,368 57,666,552 115,333,104
-1 -2 -3 -38,444,368 -57,666,552 -115,333,104

Let's try dividing by 4:

115,333,104 ÷ 4 = 28,833,276

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,833,276 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 4 28,833,276 38,444,368 57,666,552 115,333,104
-1 -2 -3 -4 -28,833,276 -38,444,368 -57,666,552 115,333,104
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

If you did it right, you will end up with this table:

123468121624482,402,7734,805,5467,208,3199,611,09214,416,63819,222,18428,833,27638,444,36857,666,552115,333,104
