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 48,025,265, 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 | 48,025,265 | |
| -1 | -48,025,265 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 48,025,265.
Example:
1 x 48,025,265 = 48,025,265
and
-1 x -48,025,265 = 48,025,265
Notice both answers equal 48,025,265
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 48,025,265 and divide it by 2:
48,025,265 ÷ 2 = 24,012,632.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 24,012,632.5 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 | 48,025,265 | |
| -1 | -48,025,265 |
Now, we try dividing 48,025,265 by 3:
48,025,265 ÷ 3 = 16,008,421.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 16,008,421.6667 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 | 48,025,265 | |
| -1 | -48,025,265 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
48,025,265 ÷ 4 = 12,006,316.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 12,006,316.25 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 | 48,025,265 | |
| -1 | 48,025,265 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 67 | 115 | 271 | 335 | 529 | 1,355 | 1,541 | 2,645 | 6,233 | 7,705 | 18,157 | 31,165 | 35,443 | 90,785 | 143,359 | 177,215 | 417,611 | 716,795 | 2,088,055 | 9,605,053 | 48,025,265 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -67 | -115 | -271 | -335 | -529 | -1,355 | -1,541 | -2,645 | -6,233 | -7,705 | -18,157 | -31,165 | -35,443 | -90,785 | -143,359 | -177,215 | -417,611 | -716,795 | -2,088,055 | -9,605,053 | -48,025,265 |
