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 50,343,733, 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 | 50,343,733 | |
| -1 | -50,343,733 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 50,343,733.
Example:
1 x 50,343,733 = 50,343,733
and
-1 x -50,343,733 = 50,343,733
Notice both answers equal 50,343,733
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 50,343,733 and divide it by 2:
50,343,733 ÷ 2 = 25,171,866.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 25,171,866.5 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 | 50,343,733 | |
| -1 | -50,343,733 |
Now, we try dividing 50,343,733 by 3:
50,343,733 ÷ 3 = 16,781,244.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 16,781,244.3333 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 | 50,343,733 | |
| -1 | -50,343,733 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
50,343,733 ÷ 4 = 12,585,933.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 12,585,933.25 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 | 50,343,733 | |
| -1 | 50,343,733 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 67 | 83 | 737 | 823 | 913 | 5,561 | 9,053 | 55,141 | 61,171 | 68,309 | 606,551 | 751,399 | 4,576,703 | 50,343,733 |
| -1 | -11 | -67 | -83 | -737 | -823 | -913 | -5,561 | -9,053 | -55,141 | -61,171 | -68,309 | -606,551 | -751,399 | -4,576,703 | -50,343,733 |
