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 44,367,271, 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 | 44,367,271 | |
| -1 | -44,367,271 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,367,271.
Example:
1 x 44,367,271 = 44,367,271
and
-1 x -44,367,271 = 44,367,271
Notice both answers equal 44,367,271
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,367,271 and divide it by 2:
44,367,271 ÷ 2 = 22,183,635.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,183,635.5 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 | 44,367,271 | |
| -1 | -44,367,271 |
Now, we try dividing 44,367,271 by 3:
44,367,271 ÷ 3 = 14,789,090.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,789,090.3333 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 | 44,367,271 | |
| -1 | -44,367,271 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,367,271 ÷ 4 = 11,091,817.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,091,817.75 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 | 44,367,271 | |
| -1 | 44,367,271 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 43 | 139 | 559 | 571 | 1,807 | 5,977 | 7,423 | 24,553 | 77,701 | 79,369 | 319,189 | 1,031,797 | 3,412,867 | 44,367,271 |
| -1 | -13 | -43 | -139 | -559 | -571 | -1,807 | -5,977 | -7,423 | -24,553 | -77,701 | -79,369 | -319,189 | -1,031,797 | -3,412,867 | -44,367,271 |
