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 45,572,513, 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 | 45,572,513 | |
| -1 | -45,572,513 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 45,572,513.
Example:
1 x 45,572,513 = 45,572,513
and
-1 x -45,572,513 = 45,572,513
Notice both answers equal 45,572,513
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 45,572,513 and divide it by 2:
45,572,513 ÷ 2 = 22,786,256.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,786,256.5 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 | 45,572,513 | |
| -1 | -45,572,513 |
Now, we try dividing 45,572,513 by 3:
45,572,513 ÷ 3 = 15,190,837.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,190,837.6667 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 | 45,572,513 | |
| -1 | -45,572,513 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
45,572,513 ÷ 4 = 11,393,128.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,393,128.25 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 | 45,572,513 | |
| -1 | 45,572,513 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 73 | 101 | 511 | 707 | 883 | 6,181 | 7,373 | 51,611 | 64,459 | 89,183 | 451,213 | 624,281 | 6,510,359 | 45,572,513 |
| -1 | -7 | -73 | -101 | -511 | -707 | -883 | -6,181 | -7,373 | -51,611 | -64,459 | -89,183 | -451,213 | -624,281 | -6,510,359 | -45,572,513 |
