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 52,041,245, 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 | 52,041,245 | |
| -1 | -52,041,245 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 52,041,245.
Example:
1 x 52,041,245 = 52,041,245
and
-1 x -52,041,245 = 52,041,245
Notice both answers equal 52,041,245
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 52,041,245 and divide it by 2:
52,041,245 ÷ 2 = 26,020,622.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,020,622.5 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 | 52,041,245 | |
| -1 | -52,041,245 |
Now, we try dividing 52,041,245 by 3:
52,041,245 ÷ 3 = 17,347,081.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,347,081.6667 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 | 52,041,245 | |
| -1 | -52,041,245 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
52,041,245 ÷ 4 = 13,010,311.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,010,311.25 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 | 52,041,245 | |
| -1 | 52,041,245 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 59 | 67 | 295 | 335 | 2,633 | 3,953 | 13,165 | 19,765 | 155,347 | 176,411 | 776,735 | 882,055 | 10,408,249 | 52,041,245 |
| -1 | -5 | -59 | -67 | -295 | -335 | -2,633 | -3,953 | -13,165 | -19,765 | -155,347 | -176,411 | -776,735 | -882,055 | -10,408,249 | -52,041,245 |
