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 22,024,345, 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 | 22,024,345 | |
| -1 | -22,024,345 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 22,024,345.
Example:
1 x 22,024,345 = 22,024,345
and
-1 x -22,024,345 = 22,024,345
Notice both answers equal 22,024,345
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 22,024,345 and divide it by 2:
22,024,345 ÷ 2 = 11,012,172.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,012,172.5 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 | 22,024,345 | |
| -1 | -22,024,345 |
Now, we try dividing 22,024,345 by 3:
22,024,345 ÷ 3 = 7,341,448.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,341,448.3333 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 | 22,024,345 | |
| -1 | -22,024,345 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
22,024,345 ÷ 4 = 5,506,086.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,506,086.25 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 | 22,024,345 | |
| -1 | 22,024,345 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 107 | 535 | 749 | 3,745 | 5,881 | 29,405 | 41,167 | 205,835 | 629,267 | 3,146,335 | 4,404,869 | 22,024,345 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -107 | -535 | -749 | -3,745 | -5,881 | -29,405 | -41,167 | -205,835 | -629,267 | -3,146,335 | -4,404,869 | -22,024,345 |
