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 52,973,575, 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 | 52,973,575 | |
| -1 | -52,973,575 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 52,973,575.
Example:
1 x 52,973,575 = 52,973,575
and
-1 x -52,973,575 = 52,973,575
Notice both answers equal 52,973,575
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 52,973,575 and divide it by 2:
52,973,575 ÷ 2 = 26,486,787.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,486,787.5 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 | 52,973,575 | |
| -1 | -52,973,575 |
Now, we try dividing 52,973,575 by 3:
52,973,575 ÷ 3 = 17,657,858.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,657,858.3333 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 | 52,973,575 | |
| -1 | -52,973,575 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
52,973,575 ÷ 4 = 13,243,393.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,243,393.75 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 | 52,973,575 | |
| -1 | 52,973,575 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 29 | 31 | 145 | 155 | 725 | 775 | 899 | 2,357 | 4,495 | 11,785 | 22,475 | 58,925 | 68,353 | 73,067 | 341,765 | 365,335 | 1,708,825 | 1,826,675 | 2,118,943 | 10,594,715 | 52,973,575 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -29 | -31 | -145 | -155 | -725 | -775 | -899 | -2,357 | -4,495 | -11,785 | -22,475 | -58,925 | -68,353 | -73,067 | -341,765 | -365,335 | -1,708,825 | -1,826,675 | -2,118,943 | -10,594,715 | -52,973,575 |
