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 23,446,819, 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 | 23,446,819 | |
| -1 | -23,446,819 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 23,446,819.
Example:
1 x 23,446,819 = 23,446,819
and
-1 x -23,446,819 = 23,446,819
Notice both answers equal 23,446,819
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 23,446,819 and divide it by 2:
23,446,819 ÷ 2 = 11,723,409.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 11,723,409.5 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 | 23,446,819 | |
| -1 | -23,446,819 |
Now, we try dividing 23,446,819 by 3:
23,446,819 ÷ 3 = 7,815,606.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 7,815,606.3333 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 | 23,446,819 | |
| -1 | -23,446,819 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
23,446,819 ÷ 4 = 5,861,704.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 5,861,704.75 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 | 23,446,819 | |
| -1 | 23,446,819 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 29 | 31 | 319 | 341 | 899 | 2,371 | 9,889 | 26,081 | 68,759 | 73,501 | 756,349 | 808,511 | 2,131,529 | 23,446,819 |
| -1 | -11 | -29 | -31 | -319 | -341 | -899 | -2,371 | -9,889 | -26,081 | -68,759 | -73,501 | -756,349 | -808,511 | -2,131,529 | -23,446,819 |
