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 26,416,115, 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 | 26,416,115 | |
| -1 | -26,416,115 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 26,416,115.
Example:
1 x 26,416,115 = 26,416,115
and
-1 x -26,416,115 = 26,416,115
Notice both answers equal 26,416,115
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 26,416,115 and divide it by 2:
26,416,115 ÷ 2 = 13,208,057.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 13,208,057.5 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 | 26,416,115 | |
| -1 | -26,416,115 |
Now, we try dividing 26,416,115 by 3:
26,416,115 ÷ 3 = 8,805,371.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 8,805,371.6667 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 | 26,416,115 | |
| -1 | -26,416,115 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
26,416,115 ÷ 4 = 6,604,028.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 6,604,028.75 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 | 26,416,115 | |
| -1 | 26,416,115 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 47 | 55 | 121 | 235 | 517 | 605 | 929 | 2,585 | 4,645 | 5,687 | 10,219 | 28,435 | 43,663 | 51,095 | 112,409 | 218,315 | 480,293 | 562,045 | 2,401,465 | 5,283,223 | 26,416,115 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -47 | -55 | -121 | -235 | -517 | -605 | -929 | -2,585 | -4,645 | -5,687 | -10,219 | -28,435 | -43,663 | -51,095 | -112,409 | -218,315 | -480,293 | -562,045 | -2,401,465 | -5,283,223 | -26,416,115 |
