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 46,466,525, 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 | 46,466,525 | |
| -1 | -46,466,525 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 46,466,525.
Example:
1 x 46,466,525 = 46,466,525
and
-1 x -46,466,525 = 46,466,525
Notice both answers equal 46,466,525
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 46,466,525 and divide it by 2:
46,466,525 ÷ 2 = 23,233,262.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 23,233,262.5 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 | 46,466,525 | |
| -1 | -46,466,525 |
Now, we try dividing 46,466,525 by 3:
46,466,525 ÷ 3 = 15,488,841.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,488,841.6667 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 | 46,466,525 | |
| -1 | -46,466,525 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
46,466,525 ÷ 4 = 11,616,631.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,616,631.25 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 | 46,466,525 | |
| -1 | 46,466,525 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 17 | 25 | 35 | 85 | 119 | 175 | 425 | 595 | 2,975 | 15,619 | 78,095 | 109,333 | 265,523 | 390,475 | 546,665 | 1,327,615 | 1,858,661 | 2,733,325 | 6,638,075 | 9,293,305 | 46,466,525 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -17 | -25 | -35 | -85 | -119 | -175 | -425 | -595 | -2,975 | -15,619 | -78,095 | -109,333 | -265,523 | -390,475 | -546,665 | -1,327,615 | -1,858,661 | -2,733,325 | -6,638,075 | -9,293,305 | -46,466,525 |
