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 22,346,009, 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 | 22,346,009 | |
| -1 | -22,346,009 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 22,346,009.
Example:
1 x 22,346,009 = 22,346,009
and
-1 x -22,346,009 = 22,346,009
Notice both answers equal 22,346,009
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 22,346,009 and divide it by 2:
22,346,009 ÷ 2 = 11,173,004.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,173,004.5 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 | 22,346,009 | |
| -1 | -22,346,009 |
Now, we try dividing 22,346,009 by 3:
22,346,009 ÷ 3 = 7,448,669.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,448,669.6667 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 | 22,346,009 | |
| -1 | -22,346,009 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
22,346,009 ÷ 4 = 5,586,502.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,586,502.25 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 | 22,346,009 | |
| -1 | 22,346,009 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 31 | 47 | 49 | 217 | 313 | 329 | 1,457 | 1,519 | 2,191 | 2,303 | 9,703 | 10,199 | 14,711 | 15,337 | 67,921 | 71,393 | 102,977 | 456,041 | 475,447 | 720,839 | 3,192,287 | 22,346,009 |
| -1 | -7 | -31 | -47 | -49 | -217 | -313 | -329 | -1,457 | -1,519 | -2,191 | -2,303 | -9,703 | -10,199 | -14,711 | -15,337 | -67,921 | -71,393 | -102,977 | -456,041 | -475,447 | -720,839 | -3,192,287 | -22,346,009 |
