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 44,043,445, 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 | 44,043,445 | |
| -1 | -44,043,445 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,043,445.
Example:
1 x 44,043,445 = 44,043,445
and
-1 x -44,043,445 = 44,043,445
Notice both answers equal 44,043,445
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,043,445 and divide it by 2:
44,043,445 ÷ 2 = 22,021,722.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,021,722.5 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 | 44,043,445 | |
| -1 | -44,043,445 |
Now, we try dividing 44,043,445 by 3:
44,043,445 ÷ 3 = 14,681,148.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,681,148.3333 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 | 44,043,445 | |
| -1 | -44,043,445 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,043,445 ÷ 4 = 11,010,861.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,010,861.25 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 | 44,043,445 | |
| -1 | 44,043,445 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 113 | 137 | 565 | 569 | 685 | 2,845 | 15,481 | 64,297 | 77,405 | 77,953 | 321,485 | 389,765 | 8,808,689 | 44,043,445 |
| -1 | -5 | -113 | -137 | -565 | -569 | -685 | -2,845 | -15,481 | -64,297 | -77,405 | -77,953 | -321,485 | -389,765 | -8,808,689 | -44,043,445 |
