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 44,224,115, 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 | 44,224,115 | |
| -1 | -44,224,115 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,224,115.
Example:
1 x 44,224,115 = 44,224,115
and
-1 x -44,224,115 = 44,224,115
Notice both answers equal 44,224,115
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,224,115 and divide it by 2:
44,224,115 ÷ 2 = 22,112,057.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,112,057.5 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 | 44,224,115 | |
| -1 | -44,224,115 |
Now, we try dividing 44,224,115 by 3:
44,224,115 ÷ 3 = 14,741,371.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,741,371.6667 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 | 44,224,115 | |
| -1 | -44,224,115 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,224,115 ÷ 4 = 11,056,028.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,056,028.75 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 | 44,224,115 | |
| -1 | 44,224,115 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 19 | 65 | 95 | 247 | 1,235 | 35,809 | 179,045 | 465,517 | 680,371 | 2,327,585 | 3,401,855 | 8,844,823 | 44,224,115 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -19 | -65 | -95 | -247 | -1,235 | -35,809 | -179,045 | -465,517 | -680,371 | -2,327,585 | -3,401,855 | -8,844,823 | -44,224,115 |
