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 44,362,115, 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 | 44,362,115 | |
| -1 | -44,362,115 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,362,115.
Example:
1 x 44,362,115 = 44,362,115
and
-1 x -44,362,115 = 44,362,115
Notice both answers equal 44,362,115
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,362,115 and divide it by 2:
44,362,115 ÷ 2 = 22,181,057.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,181,057.5 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 | 44,362,115 | |
| -1 | -44,362,115 |
Now, we try dividing 44,362,115 by 3:
44,362,115 ÷ 3 = 14,787,371.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,787,371.6667 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 | 44,362,115 | |
| -1 | -44,362,115 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,362,115 ÷ 4 = 11,090,528.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,090,528.75 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 | 44,362,115 | |
| -1 | 44,362,115 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 991 | 1,279 | 4,955 | 6,395 | 6,937 | 8,953 | 34,685 | 44,765 | 1,267,489 | 6,337,445 | 8,872,423 | 44,362,115 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -991 | -1,279 | -4,955 | -6,395 | -6,937 | -8,953 | -34,685 | -44,765 | -1,267,489 | -6,337,445 | -8,872,423 | -44,362,115 |
