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 52,515,505, 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 | 52,515,505 | |
| -1 | -52,515,505 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 52,515,505.
Example:
1 x 52,515,505 = 52,515,505
and
-1 x -52,515,505 = 52,515,505
Notice both answers equal 52,515,505
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 52,515,505 and divide it by 2:
52,515,505 ÷ 2 = 26,257,752.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,257,752.5 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 | 52,515,505 | |
| -1 | -52,515,505 |
Now, we try dividing 52,515,505 by 3:
52,515,505 ÷ 3 = 17,505,168.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,505,168.3333 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 | 52,515,505 | |
| -1 | -52,515,505 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
52,515,505 ÷ 4 = 13,128,876.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,128,876.25 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 | 52,515,505 | |
| -1 | 52,515,505 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 49 | 71 | 245 | 355 | 497 | 2,485 | 3,019 | 3,479 | 15,095 | 17,395 | 21,133 | 105,665 | 147,931 | 214,349 | 739,655 | 1,071,745 | 1,500,443 | 7,502,215 | 10,503,101 | 52,515,505 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -49 | -71 | -245 | -355 | -497 | -2,485 | -3,019 | -3,479 | -15,095 | -17,395 | -21,133 | -105,665 | -147,931 | -214,349 | -739,655 | -1,071,745 | -1,500,443 | -7,502,215 | -10,503,101 | -52,515,505 |
