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 141,103,585, 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 | 141,103,585 | |
| -1 | -141,103,585 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 141,103,585.
Example:
1 x 141,103,585 = 141,103,585
and
-1 x -141,103,585 = 141,103,585
Notice both answers equal 141,103,585
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 141,103,585 and divide it by 2:
141,103,585 ÷ 2 = 70,551,792.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 70,551,792.5 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 | 141,103,585 | |
| -1 | -141,103,585 |
Now, we try dividing 141,103,585 by 3:
141,103,585 ÷ 3 = 47,034,528.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 47,034,528.3333 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 | 141,103,585 | |
| -1 | -141,103,585 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
141,103,585 ÷ 4 = 35,275,896.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 35,275,896.25 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 | 141,103,585 | |
| -1 | 141,103,585 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 49 | 245 | 337 | 1,685 | 1,709 | 2,359 | 8,545 | 11,795 | 11,963 | 16,513 | 59,815 | 82,565 | 83,741 | 418,705 | 575,933 | 2,879,665 | 4,031,531 | 20,157,655 | 28,220,717 | 141,103,585 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -49 | -245 | -337 | -1,685 | -1,709 | -2,359 | -8,545 | -11,795 | -11,963 | -16,513 | -59,815 | -82,565 | -83,741 | -418,705 | -575,933 | -2,879,665 | -4,031,531 | -20,157,655 | -28,220,717 | -141,103,585 |
