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 266,224,105, 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 | 266,224,105 | |
| -1 | -266,224,105 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 266,224,105.
Example:
1 x 266,224,105 = 266,224,105
and
-1 x -266,224,105 = 266,224,105
Notice both answers equal 266,224,105
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 266,224,105 and divide it by 2:
266,224,105 ÷ 2 = 133,112,052.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 133,112,052.5 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 | 266,224,105 | |
| -1 | -266,224,105 |
Now, we try dividing 266,224,105 by 3:
266,224,105 ÷ 3 = 88,741,368.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 88,741,368.3333 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 | 266,224,105 | |
| -1 | -266,224,105 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
266,224,105 ÷ 4 = 66,556,026.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 66,556,026.25 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 | 266,224,105 | |
| -1 | 266,224,105 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 19 | 35 | 49 | 95 | 133 | 245 | 665 | 931 | 4,655 | 57,191 | 285,955 | 400,337 | 1,086,629 | 2,001,685 | 2,802,359 | 5,433,145 | 7,606,403 | 14,011,795 | 38,032,015 | 53,244,821 | 266,224,105 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -19 | -35 | -49 | -95 | -133 | -245 | -665 | -931 | -4,655 | -57,191 | -285,955 | -400,337 | -1,086,629 | -2,001,685 | -2,802,359 | -5,433,145 | -7,606,403 | -14,011,795 | -38,032,015 | -53,244,821 | -266,224,105 |
