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 44,013,211, 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 | 44,013,211 | |
| -1 | -44,013,211 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,013,211.
Example:
1 x 44,013,211 = 44,013,211
and
-1 x -44,013,211 = 44,013,211
Notice both answers equal 44,013,211
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,013,211 and divide it by 2:
44,013,211 ÷ 2 = 22,006,605.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,006,605.5 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 | 44,013,211 | |
| -1 | -44,013,211 |
Now, we try dividing 44,013,211 by 3:
44,013,211 ÷ 3 = 14,671,070.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,671,070.3333 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 | 44,013,211 | |
| -1 | -44,013,211 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,013,211 ÷ 4 = 11,003,302.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,003,302.75 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 | 44,013,211 | |
| -1 | 44,013,211 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 31 | 337 | 341 | 383 | 3,707 | 4,213 | 10,447 | 11,873 | 114,917 | 129,071 | 130,603 | 1,419,781 | 4,001,201 | 44,013,211 |
| -1 | -11 | -31 | -337 | -341 | -383 | -3,707 | -4,213 | -10,447 | -11,873 | -114,917 | -129,071 | -130,603 | -1,419,781 | -4,001,201 | -44,013,211 |
