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 25,250,533, 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 | 25,250,533 | |
| -1 | -25,250,533 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 25,250,533.
Example:
1 x 25,250,533 = 25,250,533
and
-1 x -25,250,533 = 25,250,533
Notice both answers equal 25,250,533
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 25,250,533 and divide it by 2:
25,250,533 ÷ 2 = 12,625,266.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 12,625,266.5 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 | 25,250,533 | |
| -1 | -25,250,533 |
Now, we try dividing 25,250,533 by 3:
25,250,533 ÷ 3 = 8,416,844.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 8,416,844.3333 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 | 25,250,533 | |
| -1 | -25,250,533 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
25,250,533 ÷ 4 = 6,312,633.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 6,312,633.25 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 | 25,250,533 | |
| -1 | 25,250,533 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 49 | 77 | 79 | 539 | 553 | 593 | 869 | 3,871 | 4,151 | 6,083 | 6,523 | 29,057 | 42,581 | 45,661 | 46,847 | 319,627 | 327,929 | 515,317 | 2,295,503 | 3,607,219 | 25,250,533 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -49 | -77 | -79 | -539 | -553 | -593 | -869 | -3,871 | -4,151 | -6,083 | -6,523 | -29,057 | -42,581 | -45,661 | -46,847 | -319,627 | -327,929 | -515,317 | -2,295,503 | -3,607,219 | -25,250,533 |
