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 44,504,125, 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 | 44,504,125 | |
| -1 | -44,504,125 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,504,125.
Example:
1 x 44,504,125 = 44,504,125
and
-1 x -44,504,125 = 44,504,125
Notice both answers equal 44,504,125
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,504,125 and divide it by 2:
44,504,125 ÷ 2 = 22,252,062.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,252,062.5 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 | 44,504,125 | |
| -1 | -44,504,125 |
Now, we try dividing 44,504,125 by 3:
44,504,125 ÷ 3 = 14,834,708.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,834,708.3333 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 | 44,504,125 | |
| -1 | -44,504,125 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,504,125 ÷ 4 = 11,126,031.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,126,031.25 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 | 44,504,125 | |
| -1 | 44,504,125 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 29 | 125 | 145 | 725 | 3,625 | 12,277 | 61,385 | 306,925 | 356,033 | 1,534,625 | 1,780,165 | 8,900,825 | 44,504,125 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -29 | -125 | -145 | -725 | -3,625 | -12,277 | -61,385 | -306,925 | -356,033 | -1,534,625 | -1,780,165 | -8,900,825 | -44,504,125 |
