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 45,174,001, 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 | 45,174,001 | |
| -1 | -45,174,001 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 45,174,001.
Example:
1 x 45,174,001 = 45,174,001
and
-1 x -45,174,001 = 45,174,001
Notice both answers equal 45,174,001
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 45,174,001 and divide it by 2:
45,174,001 ÷ 2 = 22,587,000.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,587,000.5 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 | 45,174,001 | |
| -1 | -45,174,001 |
Now, we try dividing 45,174,001 by 3:
45,174,001 ÷ 3 = 15,058,000.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,058,000.3333 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 | 45,174,001 | |
| -1 | -45,174,001 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
45,174,001 ÷ 4 = 11,293,500.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,293,500.25 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 | 45,174,001 | |
| -1 | 45,174,001 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 23 | 167 | 437 | 619 | 3,173 | 3,841 | 11,761 | 14,237 | 72,979 | 103,373 | 270,503 | 1,964,087 | 2,377,579 | 45,174,001 |
| -1 | -19 | -23 | -167 | -437 | -619 | -3,173 | -3,841 | -11,761 | -14,237 | -72,979 | -103,373 | -270,503 | -1,964,087 | -2,377,579 | -45,174,001 |
