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 241,034,425, 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 | 241,034,425 | |
| -1 | -241,034,425 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 241,034,425.
Example:
1 x 241,034,425 = 241,034,425
and
-1 x -241,034,425 = 241,034,425
Notice both answers equal 241,034,425
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 241,034,425 and divide it by 2:
241,034,425 ÷ 2 = 120,517,212.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 120,517,212.5 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 | 241,034,425 | |
| -1 | -241,034,425 |
Now, we try dividing 241,034,425 by 3:
241,034,425 ÷ 3 = 80,344,808.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 80,344,808.3333 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 | 241,034,425 | |
| -1 | -241,034,425 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
241,034,425 ÷ 4 = 60,258,606.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 60,258,606.25 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 | 241,034,425 | |
| -1 | 241,034,425 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 109 | 197 | 449 | 545 | 985 | 2,245 | 2,725 | 4,925 | 11,225 | 21,473 | 48,941 | 88,453 | 107,365 | 244,705 | 442,265 | 536,825 | 1,223,525 | 2,211,325 | 9,641,377 | 48,206,885 | 241,034,425 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -109 | -197 | -449 | -545 | -985 | -2,245 | -2,725 | -4,925 | -11,225 | -21,473 | -48,941 | -88,453 | -107,365 | -244,705 | -442,265 | -536,825 | -1,223,525 | -2,211,325 | -9,641,377 | -48,206,885 | -241,034,425 |
