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 116,045,027, 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 | 116,045,027 | |
| -1 | -116,045,027 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 116,045,027.
Example:
1 x 116,045,027 = 116,045,027
and
-1 x -116,045,027 = 116,045,027
Notice both answers equal 116,045,027
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 116,045,027 and divide it by 2:
116,045,027 ÷ 2 = 58,022,513.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 58,022,513.5 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 | 116,045,027 | |
| -1 | -116,045,027 |
Now, we try dividing 116,045,027 by 3:
116,045,027 ÷ 3 = 38,681,675.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,681,675.6667 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 | 116,045,027 | |
| -1 | -116,045,027 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
116,045,027 ÷ 4 = 29,011,256.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 29,011,256.75 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 | 116,045,027 | |
| -1 | 116,045,027 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 71 | 133 | 497 | 1,349 | 9,443 | 12,289 | 86,023 | 233,491 | 872,519 | 1,634,437 | 6,107,633 | 16,577,861 | 116,045,027 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -71 | -133 | -497 | -1,349 | -9,443 | -12,289 | -86,023 | -233,491 | -872,519 | -1,634,437 | -6,107,633 | -16,577,861 | -116,045,027 |
