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 47,833,045, 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 | 47,833,045 | |
| -1 | -47,833,045 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 47,833,045.
Example:
1 x 47,833,045 = 47,833,045
and
-1 x -47,833,045 = 47,833,045
Notice both answers equal 47,833,045
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 47,833,045 and divide it by 2:
47,833,045 ÷ 2 = 23,916,522.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 23,916,522.5 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 | 47,833,045 | |
| -1 | -47,833,045 |
Now, we try dividing 47,833,045 by 3:
47,833,045 ÷ 3 = 15,944,348.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,944,348.3333 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 | 47,833,045 | |
| -1 | -47,833,045 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
47,833,045 ÷ 4 = 11,958,261.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,958,261.25 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 | 47,833,045 | |
| -1 | 47,833,045 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 37 | 65 | 185 | 481 | 2,405 | 19,889 | 99,445 | 258,557 | 735,893 | 1,292,785 | 3,679,465 | 9,566,609 | 47,833,045 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -37 | -65 | -185 | -481 | -2,405 | -19,889 | -99,445 | -258,557 | -735,893 | -1,292,785 | -3,679,465 | -9,566,609 | -47,833,045 |
