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 135,661,333, 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 | 135,661,333 | |
| -1 | -135,661,333 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 135,661,333.
Example:
1 x 135,661,333 = 135,661,333
and
-1 x -135,661,333 = 135,661,333
Notice both answers equal 135,661,333
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 135,661,333 and divide it by 2:
135,661,333 ÷ 2 = 67,830,666.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 67,830,666.5 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 | 135,661,333 | |
| -1 | -135,661,333 |
Now, we try dividing 135,661,333 by 3:
135,661,333 ÷ 3 = 45,220,444.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 45,220,444.3333 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 | 135,661,333 | |
| -1 | -135,661,333 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
135,661,333 ÷ 4 = 33,915,333.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 33,915,333.25 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 | 135,661,333 | |
| -1 | 135,661,333 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 29 | 41 | 71 | 1,189 | 1,607 | 2,059 | 2,911 | 46,603 | 65,887 | 84,419 | 114,097 | 1,910,723 | 3,308,813 | 4,677,977 | 135,661,333 |
| -1 | -29 | -41 | -71 | -1,189 | -1,607 | -2,059 | -2,911 | -46,603 | -65,887 | -84,419 | -114,097 | -1,910,723 | -3,308,813 | -4,677,977 | -135,661,333 |
