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 44,760,415, 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 | 44,760,415 | |
| -1 | -44,760,415 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 44,760,415.
Example:
1 x 44,760,415 = 44,760,415
and
-1 x -44,760,415 = 44,760,415
Notice both answers equal 44,760,415
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 44,760,415 and divide it by 2:
44,760,415 ÷ 2 = 22,380,207.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,380,207.5 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 | 44,760,415 | |
| -1 | -44,760,415 |
Now, we try dividing 44,760,415 by 3:
44,760,415 ÷ 3 = 14,920,138.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,920,138.3333 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 | 44,760,415 | |
| -1 | -44,760,415 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
44,760,415 ÷ 4 = 11,190,103.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,190,103.75 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 | 44,760,415 | |
| -1 | 44,760,415 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 35 | 115 | 161 | 805 | 55,603 | 278,015 | 389,221 | 1,278,869 | 1,946,105 | 6,394,345 | 8,952,083 | 44,760,415 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -35 | -115 | -161 | -805 | -55,603 | -278,015 | -389,221 | -1,278,869 | -1,946,105 | -6,394,345 | -8,952,083 | -44,760,415 |
