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 47,553,055, 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 | 47,553,055 | |
| -1 | -47,553,055 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 47,553,055.
Example:
1 x 47,553,055 = 47,553,055
and
-1 x -47,553,055 = 47,553,055
Notice both answers equal 47,553,055
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 47,553,055 and divide it by 2:
47,553,055 ÷ 2 = 23,776,527.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 23,776,527.5 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 | 47,553,055 | |
| -1 | -47,553,055 |
Now, we try dividing 47,553,055 by 3:
47,553,055 ÷ 3 = 15,851,018.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,851,018.3333 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 | 47,553,055 | |
| -1 | -47,553,055 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
47,553,055 ÷ 4 = 11,888,263.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,888,263.75 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 | 47,553,055 | |
| -1 | 47,553,055 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 43 | 55 | 215 | 473 | 2,365 | 20,107 | 100,535 | 221,177 | 864,601 | 1,105,885 | 4,323,005 | 9,510,611 | 47,553,055 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -43 | -55 | -215 | -473 | -2,365 | -20,107 | -100,535 | -221,177 | -864,601 | -1,105,885 | -4,323,005 | -9,510,611 | -47,553,055 |
