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 45,632,167, 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 | 45,632,167 | |
| -1 | -45,632,167 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 45,632,167.
Example:
1 x 45,632,167 = 45,632,167
and
-1 x -45,632,167 = 45,632,167
Notice both answers equal 45,632,167
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 45,632,167 and divide it by 2:
45,632,167 ÷ 2 = 22,816,083.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 22,816,083.5 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 | 45,632,167 | |
| -1 | -45,632,167 |
Now, we try dividing 45,632,167 by 3:
45,632,167 ÷ 3 = 15,210,722.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,210,722.3333 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 | 45,632,167 | |
| -1 | -45,632,167 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
45,632,167 ÷ 4 = 11,408,041.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,408,041.75 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 | 45,632,167 | |
| -1 | 45,632,167 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 29 | 133 | 203 | 551 | 3,857 | 11,831 | 82,817 | 224,789 | 343,099 | 1,573,523 | 2,401,693 | 6,518,881 | 45,632,167 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -29 | -133 | -203 | -551 | -3,857 | -11,831 | -82,817 | -224,789 | -343,099 | -1,573,523 | -2,401,693 | -6,518,881 | -45,632,167 |
