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 30,441,101, 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 | 30,441,101 | |
| -1 | -30,441,101 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 30,441,101.
Example:
1 x 30,441,101 = 30,441,101
and
-1 x -30,441,101 = 30,441,101
Notice both answers equal 30,441,101
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 30,441,101 and divide it by 2:
30,441,101 ÷ 2 = 15,220,550.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 15,220,550.5 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 | 30,441,101 | |
| -1 | -30,441,101 |
Now, we try dividing 30,441,101 by 3:
30,441,101 ÷ 3 = 10,147,033.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 10,147,033.6667 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 | 30,441,101 | |
| -1 | -30,441,101 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
30,441,101 ÷ 4 = 7,610,275.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 7,610,275.25 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 | 30,441,101 | |
| -1 | 30,441,101 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 17 | 31 | 47 | 527 | 799 | 1,229 | 1,457 | 20,893 | 24,769 | 38,099 | 57,763 | 647,683 | 981,971 | 1,790,653 | 30,441,101 |
| -1 | -17 | -31 | -47 | -527 | -799 | -1,229 | -1,457 | -20,893 | -24,769 | -38,099 | -57,763 | -647,683 | -981,971 | -1,790,653 | -30,441,101 |
