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 23,235,265, 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 | 23,235,265 | |
| -1 | -23,235,265 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 23,235,265.
Example:
1 x 23,235,265 = 23,235,265
and
-1 x -23,235,265 = 23,235,265
Notice both answers equal 23,235,265
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 23,235,265 and divide it by 2:
23,235,265 ÷ 2 = 11,617,632.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,617,632.5 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 | 23,235,265 | |
| -1 | -23,235,265 |
Now, we try dividing 23,235,265 by 3:
23,235,265 ÷ 3 = 7,745,088.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,745,088.3333 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 | 23,235,265 | |
| -1 | -23,235,265 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
23,235,265 ÷ 4 = 5,808,816.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,808,816.25 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 | 23,235,265 | |
| -1 | 23,235,265 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 43 | 67 | 215 | 335 | 1,613 | 2,881 | 8,065 | 14,405 | 69,359 | 108,071 | 346,795 | 540,355 | 4,647,053 | 23,235,265 |
| -1 | -5 | -43 | -67 | -215 | -335 | -1,613 | -2,881 | -8,065 | -14,405 | -69,359 | -108,071 | -346,795 | -540,355 | -4,647,053 | -23,235,265 |
