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 133,512,577, 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 | 133,512,577 | |
| -1 | -133,512,577 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 133,512,577.
Example:
1 x 133,512,577 = 133,512,577
and
-1 x -133,512,577 = 133,512,577
Notice both answers equal 133,512,577
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 133,512,577 and divide it by 2:
133,512,577 ÷ 2 = 66,756,288.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 66,756,288.5 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 | 133,512,577 | |
| -1 | -133,512,577 |
Now, we try dividing 133,512,577 by 3:
133,512,577 ÷ 3 = 44,504,192.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 44,504,192.3333 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 | 133,512,577 | |
| -1 | -133,512,577 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
133,512,577 ÷ 4 = 33,378,144.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 33,378,144.25 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 | 133,512,577 | |
| -1 | 133,512,577 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 17 | 173 | 187 | 1,903 | 2,941 | 4,127 | 32,351 | 45,397 | 70,159 | 713,971 | 771,749 | 7,853,681 | 12,137,507 | 133,512,577 |
| -1 | -11 | -17 | -173 | -187 | -1,903 | -2,941 | -4,127 | -32,351 | -45,397 | -70,159 | -713,971 | -771,749 | -7,853,681 | -12,137,507 | -133,512,577 |
