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 52,750,295, 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 | 52,750,295 | |
| -1 | -52,750,295 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 52,750,295.
Example:
1 x 52,750,295 = 52,750,295
and
-1 x -52,750,295 = 52,750,295
Notice both answers equal 52,750,295
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 52,750,295 and divide it by 2:
52,750,295 ÷ 2 = 26,375,147.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,375,147.5 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 | 52,750,295 | |
| -1 | -52,750,295 |
Now, we try dividing 52,750,295 by 3:
52,750,295 ÷ 3 = 17,583,431.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,583,431.6667 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 | 52,750,295 | |
| -1 | -52,750,295 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
52,750,295 ÷ 4 = 13,187,573.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,187,573.75 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 | 52,750,295 | |
| -1 | 52,750,295 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 173 | 865 | 2,249 | 4,691 | 11,245 | 23,455 | 60,983 | 304,915 | 811,543 | 4,057,715 | 10,550,059 | 52,750,295 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -173 | -865 | -2,249 | -4,691 | -11,245 | -23,455 | -60,983 | -304,915 | -811,543 | -4,057,715 | -10,550,059 | -52,750,295 |
