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 44,696,705, 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 | 44,696,705 | |
| -1 | -44,696,705 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,696,705.
Example:
1 x 44,696,705 = 44,696,705
and
-1 x -44,696,705 = 44,696,705
Notice both answers equal 44,696,705
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,696,705 and divide it by 2:
44,696,705 ÷ 2 = 22,348,352.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,348,352.5 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 | 44,696,705 | |
| -1 | -44,696,705 |
Now, we try dividing 44,696,705 by 3:
44,696,705 ÷ 3 = 14,898,901.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,898,901.6667 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 | 44,696,705 | |
| -1 | -44,696,705 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,696,705 ÷ 4 = 11,174,176.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,174,176.25 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 | 44,696,705 | |
| -1 | 44,696,705 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 67 | 115 | 335 | 1,541 | 5,801 | 7,705 | 29,005 | 133,423 | 388,667 | 667,115 | 1,943,335 | 8,939,341 | 44,696,705 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -67 | -115 | -335 | -1,541 | -5,801 | -7,705 | -29,005 | -133,423 | -388,667 | -667,115 | -1,943,335 | -8,939,341 | -44,696,705 |
