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 44,632,445, 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 | 44,632,445 | |
| -1 | -44,632,445 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,632,445.
Example:
1 x 44,632,445 = 44,632,445
and
-1 x -44,632,445 = 44,632,445
Notice both answers equal 44,632,445
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,632,445 and divide it by 2:
44,632,445 ÷ 2 = 22,316,222.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,316,222.5 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 | 44,632,445 | |
| -1 | -44,632,445 |
Now, we try dividing 44,632,445 by 3:
44,632,445 ÷ 3 = 14,877,481.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,877,481.6667 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 | 44,632,445 | |
| -1 | -44,632,445 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,632,445 ÷ 4 = 11,158,111.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,158,111.25 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 | 44,632,445 | |
| -1 | 44,632,445 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 13 | 55 | 65 | 143 | 715 | 62,423 | 312,115 | 686,653 | 811,499 | 3,433,265 | 4,057,495 | 8,926,489 | 44,632,445 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -13 | -55 | -65 | -143 | -715 | -62,423 | -312,115 | -686,653 | -811,499 | -3,433,265 | -4,057,495 | -8,926,489 | -44,632,445 |
