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 51,044,669, 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 | 51,044,669 | |
| -1 | -51,044,669 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 51,044,669.
Example:
1 x 51,044,669 = 51,044,669
and
-1 x -51,044,669 = 51,044,669
Notice both answers equal 51,044,669
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 51,044,669 and divide it by 2:
51,044,669 ÷ 2 = 25,522,334.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 25,522,334.5 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 | 51,044,669 | |
| -1 | -51,044,669 |
Now, we try dividing 51,044,669 by 3:
51,044,669 ÷ 3 = 17,014,889.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,014,889.6667 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 | 51,044,669 | |
| -1 | -51,044,669 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
51,044,669 ÷ 4 = 12,761,167.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 12,761,167.25 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 | 51,044,669 | |
| -1 | 51,044,669 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 29 | 71 | 377 | 923 | 1,907 | 2,059 | 24,791 | 26,767 | 55,303 | 135,397 | 718,939 | 1,760,161 | 3,926,513 | 51,044,669 |
| -1 | -13 | -29 | -71 | -377 | -923 | -1,907 | -2,059 | -24,791 | -26,767 | -55,303 | -135,397 | -718,939 | -1,760,161 | -3,926,513 | -51,044,669 |
