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 23,446,475, 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 | 23,446,475 | |
| -1 | -23,446,475 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 23,446,475.
Example:
1 x 23,446,475 = 23,446,475
and
-1 x -23,446,475 = 23,446,475
Notice both answers equal 23,446,475
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 23,446,475 and divide it by 2:
23,446,475 ÷ 2 = 11,723,237.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,723,237.5 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 | 23,446,475 | |
| -1 | -23,446,475 |
Now, we try dividing 23,446,475 by 3:
23,446,475 ÷ 3 = 7,815,491.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,815,491.6667 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 | 23,446,475 | |
| -1 | -23,446,475 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
23,446,475 ÷ 4 = 5,861,618.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,861,618.75 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 | 23,446,475 | |
| -1 | 23,446,475 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 19 | 25 | 65 | 95 | 247 | 325 | 475 | 1,235 | 3,797 | 6,175 | 18,985 | 49,361 | 72,143 | 94,925 | 246,805 | 360,715 | 937,859 | 1,234,025 | 1,803,575 | 4,689,295 | 23,446,475 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -19 | -25 | -65 | -95 | -247 | -325 | -475 | -1,235 | -3,797 | -6,175 | -18,985 | -49,361 | -72,143 | -94,925 | -246,805 | -360,715 | -937,859 | -1,234,025 | -1,803,575 | -4,689,295 | -23,446,475 |
