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 44,269,057, 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 | 44,269,057 | |
| -1 | -44,269,057 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,269,057.
Example:
1 x 44,269,057 = 44,269,057
and
-1 x -44,269,057 = 44,269,057
Notice both answers equal 44,269,057
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,269,057 and divide it by 2:
44,269,057 ÷ 2 = 22,134,528.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,134,528.5 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 | 44,269,057 | |
| -1 | -44,269,057 |
Now, we try dividing 44,269,057 by 3:
44,269,057 ÷ 3 = 14,756,352.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,756,352.3333 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 | 44,269,057 | |
| -1 | -44,269,057 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,269,057 ÷ 4 = 11,067,264.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,067,264.25 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 | 44,269,057 | |
| -1 | 44,269,057 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 37 | 59 | 259 | 413 | 2,183 | 2,897 | 15,281 | 20,279 | 107,189 | 170,923 | 750,323 | 1,196,461 | 6,324,151 | 44,269,057 |
| -1 | -7 | -37 | -59 | -259 | -413 | -2,183 | -2,897 | -15,281 | -20,279 | -107,189 | -170,923 | -750,323 | -1,196,461 | -6,324,151 | -44,269,057 |
