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 22,612,375, 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 | 22,612,375 | |
| -1 | -22,612,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 22,612,375.
Example:
1 x 22,612,375 = 22,612,375
and
-1 x -22,612,375 = 22,612,375
Notice both answers equal 22,612,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 22,612,375 and divide it by 2:
22,612,375 ÷ 2 = 11,306,187.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,306,187.5 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 | 22,612,375 | |
| -1 | -22,612,375 |
Now, we try dividing 22,612,375 by 3:
22,612,375 ÷ 3 = 7,537,458.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,537,458.3333 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 | 22,612,375 | |
| -1 | -22,612,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
22,612,375 ÷ 4 = 5,653,093.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,653,093.75 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 | 22,612,375 | |
| -1 | 22,612,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 25 | 95 | 125 | 475 | 2,375 | 9,521 | 47,605 | 180,899 | 238,025 | 904,495 | 1,190,125 | 4,522,475 | 22,612,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -25 | -95 | -125 | -475 | -2,375 | -9,521 | -47,605 | -180,899 | -238,025 | -904,495 | -1,190,125 | -4,522,475 | -22,612,375 |
