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 46,676,315, 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 | 46,676,315 | |
| -1 | -46,676,315 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 46,676,315.
Example:
1 x 46,676,315 = 46,676,315
and
-1 x -46,676,315 = 46,676,315
Notice both answers equal 46,676,315
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 46,676,315 and divide it by 2:
46,676,315 ÷ 2 = 23,338,157.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 23,338,157.5 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 | 46,676,315 | |
| -1 | -46,676,315 |
Now, we try dividing 46,676,315 by 3:
46,676,315 ÷ 3 = 15,558,771.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,558,771.6667 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 | 46,676,315 | |
| -1 | -46,676,315 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
46,676,315 ÷ 4 = 11,669,078.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,669,078.75 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 | 46,676,315 | |
| -1 | 46,676,315 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 35 | 115 | 161 | 529 | 805 | 2,521 | 2,645 | 3,703 | 12,605 | 17,647 | 18,515 | 57,983 | 88,235 | 289,915 | 405,881 | 1,333,609 | 2,029,405 | 6,668,045 | 9,335,263 | 46,676,315 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -35 | -115 | -161 | -529 | -805 | -2,521 | -2,645 | -3,703 | -12,605 | -17,647 | -18,515 | -57,983 | -88,235 | -289,915 | -405,881 | -1,333,609 | -2,029,405 | -6,668,045 | -9,335,263 | -46,676,315 |
