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 41,104,445, 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 | 41,104,445 | |
| -1 | -41,104,445 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 41,104,445.
Example:
1 x 41,104,445 = 41,104,445
and
-1 x -41,104,445 = 41,104,445
Notice both answers equal 41,104,445
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 41,104,445 and divide it by 2:
41,104,445 ÷ 2 = 20,552,222.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 20,552,222.5 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 | 41,104,445 | |
| -1 | -41,104,445 |
Now, we try dividing 41,104,445 by 3:
41,104,445 ÷ 3 = 13,701,481.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 13,701,481.6667 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 | 41,104,445 | |
| -1 | -41,104,445 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
41,104,445 ÷ 4 = 10,276,111.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,276,111.25 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 | 41,104,445 | |
| -1 | 41,104,445 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 109 | 199 | 379 | 545 | 995 | 1,895 | 21,691 | 41,311 | 75,421 | 108,455 | 206,555 | 377,105 | 8,220,889 | 41,104,445 |
| -1 | -5 | -109 | -199 | -379 | -545 | -995 | -1,895 | -21,691 | -41,311 | -75,421 | -108,455 | -206,555 | -377,105 | -8,220,889 | -41,104,445 |
