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 41,188,367, 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 | 41,188,367 | |
| -1 | -41,188,367 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 41,188,367.
Example:
1 x 41,188,367 = 41,188,367
and
-1 x -41,188,367 = 41,188,367
Notice both answers equal 41,188,367
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 41,188,367 and divide it by 2:
41,188,367 ÷ 2 = 20,594,183.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 20,594,183.5 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 | 41,188,367 | |
| -1 | -41,188,367 |
Now, we try dividing 41,188,367 by 3:
41,188,367 ÷ 3 = 13,729,455.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 13,729,455.6667 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 | 41,188,367 | |
| -1 | -41,188,367 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
41,188,367 ÷ 4 = 10,297,091.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,297,091.75 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 | 41,188,367 | |
| -1 | 41,188,367 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 31 | 43 | 53 | 341 | 473 | 583 | 1,333 | 1,643 | 2,279 | 2,809 | 14,663 | 18,073 | 25,069 | 30,899 | 70,649 | 87,079 | 120,787 | 777,139 | 957,869 | 1,328,657 | 3,744,397 | 41,188,367 |
| -1 | -11 | -31 | -43 | -53 | -341 | -473 | -583 | -1,333 | -1,643 | -2,279 | -2,809 | -14,663 | -18,073 | -25,069 | -30,899 | -70,649 | -87,079 | -120,787 | -777,139 | -957,869 | -1,328,657 | -3,744,397 | -41,188,367 |
