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 46,605,575, 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 | 46,605,575 | |
| -1 | -46,605,575 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 46,605,575.
Example:
1 x 46,605,575 = 46,605,575
and
-1 x -46,605,575 = 46,605,575
Notice both answers equal 46,605,575
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 46,605,575 and divide it by 2:
46,605,575 ÷ 2 = 23,302,787.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 23,302,787.5 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 | 46,605,575 | |
| -1 | -46,605,575 |
Now, we try dividing 46,605,575 by 3:
46,605,575 ÷ 3 = 15,535,191.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,535,191.6667 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 | 46,605,575 | |
| -1 | -46,605,575 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
46,605,575 ÷ 4 = 11,651,393.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,651,393.75 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 | 46,605,575 | |
| -1 | 46,605,575 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 25 | 59 | 95 | 295 | 475 | 1,121 | 1,475 | 1,663 | 5,605 | 8,315 | 28,025 | 31,597 | 41,575 | 98,117 | 157,985 | 490,585 | 789,925 | 1,864,223 | 2,452,925 | 9,321,115 | 46,605,575 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -25 | -59 | -95 | -295 | -475 | -1,121 | -1,475 | -1,663 | -5,605 | -8,315 | -28,025 | -31,597 | -41,575 | -98,117 | -157,985 | -490,585 | -789,925 | -1,864,223 | -2,452,925 | -9,321,115 | -46,605,575 |
