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 50,276,065, 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 | 50,276,065 | |
| -1 | -50,276,065 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 50,276,065.
Example:
1 x 50,276,065 = 50,276,065
and
-1 x -50,276,065 = 50,276,065
Notice both answers equal 50,276,065
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 50,276,065 and divide it by 2:
50,276,065 ÷ 2 = 25,138,032.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 25,138,032.5 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 | 50,276,065 | |
| -1 | -50,276,065 |
Now, we try dividing 50,276,065 by 3:
50,276,065 ÷ 3 = 16,758,688.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 16,758,688.3333 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 | 50,276,065 | |
| -1 | -50,276,065 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
50,276,065 ÷ 4 = 12,569,016.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 12,569,016.25 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 | 50,276,065 | |
| -1 | 50,276,065 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 53 | 265 | 371 | 1,855 | 27,103 | 135,515 | 189,721 | 948,605 | 1,436,459 | 7,182,295 | 10,055,213 | 50,276,065 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -53 | -265 | -371 | -1,855 | -27,103 | -135,515 | -189,721 | -948,605 | -1,436,459 | -7,182,295 | -10,055,213 | -50,276,065 |
