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 22,555,793, 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 | 22,555,793 | |
| -1 | -22,555,793 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 22,555,793.
Example:
1 x 22,555,793 = 22,555,793
and
-1 x -22,555,793 = 22,555,793
Notice both answers equal 22,555,793
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 22,555,793 and divide it by 2:
22,555,793 ÷ 2 = 11,277,896.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,277,896.5 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 | 22,555,793 | |
| -1 | -22,555,793 |
Now, we try dividing 22,555,793 by 3:
22,555,793 ÷ 3 = 7,518,597.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,518,597.6667 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 | 22,555,793 | |
| -1 | -22,555,793 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
22,555,793 ÷ 4 = 5,638,948.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,638,948.25 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 | 22,555,793 | |
| -1 | 22,555,793 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 19 | 53 | 247 | 689 | 1,007 | 1,723 | 13,091 | 22,399 | 32,737 | 91,319 | 425,581 | 1,187,147 | 1,735,061 | 22,555,793 |
| -1 | -13 | -19 | -53 | -247 | -689 | -1,007 | -1,723 | -13,091 | -22,399 | -32,737 | -91,319 | -425,581 | -1,187,147 | -1,735,061 | -22,555,793 |
