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 46,703,375, 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 | 46,703,375 | |
| -1 | -46,703,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 46,703,375.
Example:
1 x 46,703,375 = 46,703,375
and
-1 x -46,703,375 = 46,703,375
Notice both answers equal 46,703,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 46,703,375 and divide it by 2:
46,703,375 ÷ 2 = 23,351,687.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 23,351,687.5 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 | 46,703,375 | |
| -1 | -46,703,375 |
Now, we try dividing 46,703,375 by 3:
46,703,375 ÷ 3 = 15,567,791.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,567,791.6667 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 | 46,703,375 | |
| -1 | -46,703,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
46,703,375 ÷ 4 = 11,675,843.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,675,843.75 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 | 46,703,375 | |
| -1 | 46,703,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 43 | 125 | 215 | 1,075 | 5,375 | 8,689 | 43,445 | 217,225 | 373,627 | 1,086,125 | 1,868,135 | 9,340,675 | 46,703,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -43 | -125 | -215 | -1,075 | -5,375 | -8,689 | -43,445 | -217,225 | -373,627 | -1,086,125 | -1,868,135 | -9,340,675 | -46,703,375 |
