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 23,060,135, 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 | 23,060,135 | |
| -1 | -23,060,135 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 23,060,135.
Example:
1 x 23,060,135 = 23,060,135
and
-1 x -23,060,135 = 23,060,135
Notice both answers equal 23,060,135
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 23,060,135 and divide it by 2:
23,060,135 ÷ 2 = 11,530,067.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,530,067.5 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 | 23,060,135 | |
| -1 | -23,060,135 |
Now, we try dividing 23,060,135 by 3:
23,060,135 ÷ 3 = 7,686,711.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,686,711.6667 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 | 23,060,135 | |
| -1 | -23,060,135 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
23,060,135 ÷ 4 = 5,765,033.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,765,033.75 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 | 23,060,135 | |
| -1 | 23,060,135 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 49 | 61 | 245 | 305 | 427 | 1,543 | 2,135 | 2,989 | 7,715 | 10,801 | 14,945 | 54,005 | 75,607 | 94,123 | 378,035 | 470,615 | 658,861 | 3,294,305 | 4,612,027 | 23,060,135 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -49 | -61 | -245 | -305 | -427 | -1,543 | -2,135 | -2,989 | -7,715 | -10,801 | -14,945 | -54,005 | -75,607 | -94,123 | -378,035 | -470,615 | -658,861 | -3,294,305 | -4,612,027 | -23,060,135 |
