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 22,200,341, 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 | 22,200,341 | |
| -1 | -22,200,341 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 22,200,341.
Example:
1 x 22,200,341 = 22,200,341
and
-1 x -22,200,341 = 22,200,341
Notice both answers equal 22,200,341
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 22,200,341 and divide it by 2:
22,200,341 ÷ 2 = 11,100,170.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,100,170.5 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 | 22,200,341 | |
| -1 | -22,200,341 |
Now, we try dividing 22,200,341 by 3:
22,200,341 ÷ 3 = 7,400,113.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,400,113.6667 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 | 22,200,341 | |
| -1 | -22,200,341 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
22,200,341 ÷ 4 = 5,550,085.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,550,085.25 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 | 22,200,341 | |
| -1 | 22,200,341 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 29 | 43 | 551 | 817 | 937 | 1,247 | 17,803 | 23,693 | 27,173 | 40,291 | 516,287 | 765,529 | 1,168,439 | 22,200,341 |
| -1 | -19 | -29 | -43 | -551 | -817 | -937 | -1,247 | -17,803 | -23,693 | -27,173 | -40,291 | -516,287 | -765,529 | -1,168,439 | -22,200,341 |
