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 45,264,875, 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 | 45,264,875 | |
| -1 | -45,264,875 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 45,264,875.
Example:
1 x 45,264,875 = 45,264,875
and
-1 x -45,264,875 = 45,264,875
Notice both answers equal 45,264,875
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 45,264,875 and divide it by 2:
45,264,875 ÷ 2 = 22,632,437.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,632,437.5 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 | 45,264,875 | |
| -1 | -45,264,875 |
Now, we try dividing 45,264,875 by 3:
45,264,875 ÷ 3 = 15,088,291.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,088,291.6667 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 | 45,264,875 | |
| -1 | -45,264,875 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
45,264,875 ÷ 4 = 11,316,218.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,316,218.75 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 | 45,264,875 | |
| -1 | 45,264,875 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 37 | 125 | 185 | 925 | 4,625 | 9,787 | 48,935 | 244,675 | 362,119 | 1,223,375 | 1,810,595 | 9,052,975 | 45,264,875 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -37 | -125 | -185 | -925 | -4,625 | -9,787 | -48,935 | -244,675 | -362,119 | -1,223,375 | -1,810,595 | -9,052,975 | -45,264,875 |
