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 24,541,363, 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 | 24,541,363 | |
| -1 | -24,541,363 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 24,541,363.
Example:
1 x 24,541,363 = 24,541,363
and
-1 x -24,541,363 = 24,541,363
Notice both answers equal 24,541,363
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 24,541,363 and divide it by 2:
24,541,363 ÷ 2 = 12,270,681.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 12,270,681.5 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 | 24,541,363 | |
| -1 | -24,541,363 |
Now, we try dividing 24,541,363 by 3:
24,541,363 ÷ 3 = 8,180,454.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 8,180,454.3333 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 | 24,541,363 | |
| -1 | -24,541,363 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
24,541,363 ÷ 4 = 6,135,340.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 6,135,340.75 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 | 24,541,363 | |
| -1 | 24,541,363 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 67 | 71 | 77 | 469 | 497 | 737 | 781 | 4,489 | 4,757 | 5,159 | 5,467 | 31,423 | 33,299 | 49,379 | 52,327 | 318,719 | 345,653 | 366,289 | 2,231,033 | 3,505,909 | 24,541,363 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -67 | -71 | -77 | -469 | -497 | -737 | -781 | -4,489 | -4,757 | -5,159 | -5,467 | -31,423 | -33,299 | -49,379 | -52,327 | -318,719 | -345,653 | -366,289 | -2,231,033 | -3,505,909 | -24,541,363 |
