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 23,324,411, 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 | 23,324,411 | |
| -1 | -23,324,411 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 23,324,411.
Example:
1 x 23,324,411 = 23,324,411
and
-1 x -23,324,411 = 23,324,411
Notice both answers equal 23,324,411
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 23,324,411 and divide it by 2:
23,324,411 ÷ 2 = 11,662,205.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,662,205.5 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 | 23,324,411 | |
| -1 | -23,324,411 |
Now, we try dividing 23,324,411 by 3:
23,324,411 ÷ 3 = 7,774,803.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,774,803.6667 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 | 23,324,411 | |
| -1 | -23,324,411 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
23,324,411 ÷ 4 = 5,831,102.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,831,102.75 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 | 23,324,411 | |
| -1 | 23,324,411 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 59 | 83 | 433 | 649 | 913 | 4,763 | 4,897 | 25,547 | 35,939 | 53,867 | 281,017 | 395,329 | 2,120,401 | 23,324,411 |
| -1 | -11 | -59 | -83 | -433 | -649 | -913 | -4,763 | -4,897 | -25,547 | -35,939 | -53,867 | -281,017 | -395,329 | -2,120,401 | -23,324,411 |
