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 45,270,943, 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 | 45,270,943 | |
| -1 | -45,270,943 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 45,270,943.
Example:
1 x 45,270,943 = 45,270,943
and
-1 x -45,270,943 = 45,270,943
Notice both answers equal 45,270,943
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 45,270,943 and divide it by 2:
45,270,943 ÷ 2 = 22,635,471.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,635,471.5 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 | 45,270,943 | |
| -1 | -45,270,943 |
Now, we try dividing 45,270,943 by 3:
45,270,943 ÷ 3 = 15,090,314.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,090,314.3333 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 | 45,270,943 | |
| -1 | -45,270,943 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
45,270,943 ÷ 4 = 11,317,735.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,317,735.75 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 | 45,270,943 | |
| -1 | 45,270,943 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 29 | 31 | 37 | 899 | 1,073 | 1,147 | 1,361 | 33,263 | 39,469 | 42,191 | 50,357 | 1,223,539 | 1,460,353 | 1,561,067 | 45,270,943 |
| -1 | -29 | -31 | -37 | -899 | -1,073 | -1,147 | -1,361 | -33,263 | -39,469 | -42,191 | -50,357 | -1,223,539 | -1,460,353 | -1,561,067 | -45,270,943 |
