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 24,105,011, 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 | 24,105,011 | |
| -1 | -24,105,011 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 24,105,011.
Example:
1 x 24,105,011 = 24,105,011
and
-1 x -24,105,011 = 24,105,011
Notice both answers equal 24,105,011
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 24,105,011 and divide it by 2:
24,105,011 ÷ 2 = 12,052,505.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 12,052,505.5 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 | 24,105,011 | |
| -1 | -24,105,011 |
Now, we try dividing 24,105,011 by 3:
24,105,011 ÷ 3 = 8,035,003.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 8,035,003.6667 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 | 24,105,011 | |
| -1 | -24,105,011 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
24,105,011 ÷ 4 = 6,026,252.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 6,026,252.75 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 | 24,105,011 | |
| -1 | 24,105,011 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 31 | 49 | 217 | 343 | 1,519 | 2,267 | 10,633 | 15,869 | 70,277 | 111,083 | 491,939 | 777,581 | 3,443,573 | 24,105,011 |
| -1 | -7 | -31 | -49 | -217 | -343 | -1,519 | -2,267 | -10,633 | -15,869 | -70,277 | -111,083 | -491,939 | -777,581 | -3,443,573 | -24,105,011 |
