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 132,355,225, 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 | 132,355,225 | |
| -1 | -132,355,225 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 132,355,225.
Example:
1 x 132,355,225 = 132,355,225
and
-1 x -132,355,225 = 132,355,225
Notice both answers equal 132,355,225
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 132,355,225 and divide it by 2:
132,355,225 ÷ 2 = 66,177,612.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 66,177,612.5 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 | 132,355,225 | |
| -1 | -132,355,225 |
Now, we try dividing 132,355,225 by 3:
132,355,225 ÷ 3 = 44,118,408.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 44,118,408.3333 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 | 132,355,225 | |
| -1 | -132,355,225 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
132,355,225 ÷ 4 = 33,088,806.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 33,088,806.25 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 | 132,355,225 | |
| -1 | 132,355,225 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 25 | 115 | 383 | 575 | 601 | 1,915 | 3,005 | 8,809 | 9,575 | 13,823 | 15,025 | 44,045 | 69,115 | 220,225 | 230,183 | 345,575 | 1,150,915 | 5,294,209 | 5,754,575 | 26,471,045 | 132,355,225 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -25 | -115 | -383 | -575 | -601 | -1,915 | -3,005 | -8,809 | -9,575 | -13,823 | -15,025 | -44,045 | -69,115 | -220,225 | -230,183 | -345,575 | -1,150,915 | -5,294,209 | -5,754,575 | -26,471,045 | -132,355,225 |
