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 52,101,553, 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 | 52,101,553 | |
| -1 | -52,101,553 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 52,101,553.
Example:
1 x 52,101,553 = 52,101,553
and
-1 x -52,101,553 = 52,101,553
Notice both answers equal 52,101,553
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 52,101,553 and divide it by 2:
52,101,553 ÷ 2 = 26,050,776.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,050,776.5 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 | 52,101,553 | |
| -1 | -52,101,553 |
Now, we try dividing 52,101,553 by 3:
52,101,553 ÷ 3 = 17,367,184.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,367,184.3333 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 | 52,101,553 | |
| -1 | -52,101,553 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
52,101,553 ÷ 4 = 13,025,388.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,025,388.25 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 | 52,101,553 | |
| -1 | 52,101,553 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 49 | 133 | 191 | 293 | 931 | 1,337 | 2,051 | 3,629 | 5,567 | 9,359 | 14,357 | 25,403 | 38,969 | 55,963 | 177,821 | 272,783 | 391,741 | 1,063,297 | 2,742,187 | 7,443,079 | 52,101,553 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -49 | -133 | -191 | -293 | -931 | -1,337 | -2,051 | -3,629 | -5,567 | -9,359 | -14,357 | -25,403 | -38,969 | -55,963 | -177,821 | -272,783 | -391,741 | -1,063,297 | -2,742,187 | -7,443,079 | -52,101,553 |
