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 52,512,019, 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 | 52,512,019 | |
| -1 | -52,512,019 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 52,512,019.
Example:
1 x 52,512,019 = 52,512,019
and
-1 x -52,512,019 = 52,512,019
Notice both answers equal 52,512,019
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 52,512,019 and divide it by 2:
52,512,019 ÷ 2 = 26,256,009.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,256,009.5 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 | 52,512,019 | |
| -1 | -52,512,019 |
Now, we try dividing 52,512,019 by 3:
52,512,019 ÷ 3 = 17,504,006.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,504,006.3333 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 | 52,512,019 | |
| -1 | -52,512,019 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
52,512,019 ÷ 4 = 13,128,004.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,128,004.75 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 | 52,512,019 | |
| -1 | 52,512,019 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 47 | 193 | 329 | 827 | 1,351 | 5,789 | 9,071 | 38,869 | 63,497 | 159,611 | 272,083 | 1,117,277 | 7,501,717 | 52,512,019 |
| -1 | -7 | -47 | -193 | -329 | -827 | -1,351 | -5,789 | -9,071 | -38,869 | -63,497 | -159,611 | -272,083 | -1,117,277 | -7,501,717 | -52,512,019 |
