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 144,411,001, 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 | 144,411,001 | |
| -1 | -144,411,001 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 144,411,001.
Example:
1 x 144,411,001 = 144,411,001
and
-1 x -144,411,001 = 144,411,001
Notice both answers equal 144,411,001
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 144,411,001 and divide it by 2:
144,411,001 ÷ 2 = 72,205,500.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 72,205,500.5 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 | 144,411,001 | |
| -1 | -144,411,001 |
Now, we try dividing 144,411,001 by 3:
144,411,001 ÷ 3 = 48,137,000.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 48,137,000.3333 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 | 144,411,001 | |
| -1 | -144,411,001 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
144,411,001 ÷ 4 = 36,102,750.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 36,102,750.25 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 | 144,411,001 | |
| -1 | 144,411,001 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 133 | 313 | 2,191 | 3,469 | 5,947 | 24,283 | 41,629 | 65,911 | 461,377 | 1,085,797 | 7,600,579 | 20,630,143 | 144,411,001 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -133 | -313 | -2,191 | -3,469 | -5,947 | -24,283 | -41,629 | -65,911 | -461,377 | -1,085,797 | -7,600,579 | -20,630,143 | -144,411,001 |
