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 44,502,601, 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 | 44,502,601 | |
| -1 | -44,502,601 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,502,601.
Example:
1 x 44,502,601 = 44,502,601
and
-1 x -44,502,601 = 44,502,601
Notice both answers equal 44,502,601
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,502,601 and divide it by 2:
44,502,601 ÷ 2 = 22,251,300.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,251,300.5 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 | 44,502,601 | |
| -1 | -44,502,601 |
Now, we try dividing 44,502,601 by 3:
44,502,601 ÷ 3 = 14,834,200.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,834,200.3333 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 | 44,502,601 | |
| -1 | -44,502,601 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,502,601 ÷ 4 = 11,125,650.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,125,650.25 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 | 44,502,601 | |
| -1 | 44,502,601 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 37 | 143 | 169 | 407 | 481 | 647 | 1,859 | 5,291 | 6,253 | 7,117 | 8,411 | 23,939 | 68,783 | 92,521 | 109,343 | 263,329 | 311,207 | 1,202,773 | 3,423,277 | 4,045,691 | 44,502,601 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -37 | -143 | -169 | -407 | -481 | -647 | -1,859 | -5,291 | -6,253 | -7,117 | -8,411 | -23,939 | -68,783 | -92,521 | -109,343 | -263,329 | -311,207 | -1,202,773 | -3,423,277 | -4,045,691 | -44,502,601 |
