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 44,481,605, 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 | 44,481,605 | |
| -1 | -44,481,605 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,481,605.
Example:
1 x 44,481,605 = 44,481,605
and
-1 x -44,481,605 = 44,481,605
Notice both answers equal 44,481,605
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,481,605 and divide it by 2:
44,481,605 ÷ 2 = 22,240,802.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,240,802.5 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 | 44,481,605 | |
| -1 | -44,481,605 |
Now, we try dividing 44,481,605 by 3:
44,481,605 ÷ 3 = 14,827,201.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,827,201.6667 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 | 44,481,605 | |
| -1 | -44,481,605 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,481,605 ÷ 4 = 11,120,401.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,120,401.25 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 | 44,481,605 | |
| -1 | 44,481,605 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 17 | 35 | 85 | 119 | 595 | 74,759 | 373,795 | 523,313 | 1,270,903 | 2,616,565 | 6,354,515 | 8,896,321 | 44,481,605 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -17 | -35 | -85 | -119 | -595 | -74,759 | -373,795 | -523,313 | -1,270,903 | -2,616,565 | -6,354,515 | -8,896,321 | -44,481,605 |
