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 46,562,005, 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 | 46,562,005 | |
| -1 | -46,562,005 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 46,562,005.
Example:
1 x 46,562,005 = 46,562,005
and
-1 x -46,562,005 = 46,562,005
Notice both answers equal 46,562,005
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 46,562,005 and divide it by 2:
46,562,005 ÷ 2 = 23,281,002.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 23,281,002.5 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 | 46,562,005 | |
| -1 | -46,562,005 |
Now, we try dividing 46,562,005 by 3:
46,562,005 ÷ 3 = 15,520,668.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,520,668.3333 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 | 46,562,005 | |
| -1 | -46,562,005 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
46,562,005 ÷ 4 = 11,640,501.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,640,501.25 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 | 46,562,005 | |
| -1 | 46,562,005 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 35 | 49 | 115 | 161 | 245 | 805 | 1,127 | 5,635 | 8,263 | 41,315 | 57,841 | 190,049 | 289,205 | 404,887 | 950,245 | 1,330,343 | 2,024,435 | 6,651,715 | 9,312,401 | 46,562,005 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -35 | -49 | -115 | -161 | -245 | -805 | -1,127 | -5,635 | -8,263 | -41,315 | -57,841 | -190,049 | -289,205 | -404,887 | -950,245 | -1,330,343 | -2,024,435 | -6,651,715 | -9,312,401 | -46,562,005 |
