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 22,244,803, 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 | 22,244,803 | |
| -1 | -22,244,803 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 22,244,803.
Example:
1 x 22,244,803 = 22,244,803
and
-1 x -22,244,803 = 22,244,803
Notice both answers equal 22,244,803
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 22,244,803 and divide it by 2:
22,244,803 ÷ 2 = 11,122,401.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,122,401.5 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 | 22,244,803 | |
| -1 | -22,244,803 |
Now, we try dividing 22,244,803 by 3:
22,244,803 ÷ 3 = 7,414,934.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,414,934.3333 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 | 22,244,803 | |
| -1 | -22,244,803 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
22,244,803 ÷ 4 = 5,561,200.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,561,200.75 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 | 22,244,803 | |
| -1 | 22,244,803 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 43 | 263 | 281 | 301 | 1,841 | 1,967 | 11,309 | 12,083 | 73,903 | 79,163 | 84,581 | 517,321 | 3,177,829 | 22,244,803 |
| -1 | -7 | -43 | -263 | -281 | -301 | -1,841 | -1,967 | -11,309 | -12,083 | -73,903 | -79,163 | -84,581 | -517,321 | -3,177,829 | -22,244,803 |
