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 53,467,225, 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 | 53,467,225 | |
| -1 | -53,467,225 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 53,467,225.
Example:
1 x 53,467,225 = 53,467,225
and
-1 x -53,467,225 = 53,467,225
Notice both answers equal 53,467,225
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 53,467,225 and divide it by 2:
53,467,225 ÷ 2 = 26,733,612.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,733,612.5 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 | 53,467,225 | |
| -1 | -53,467,225 |
Now, we try dividing 53,467,225 by 3:
53,467,225 ÷ 3 = 17,822,408.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,822,408.3333 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 | 53,467,225 | |
| -1 | -53,467,225 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
53,467,225 ÷ 4 = 13,366,806.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,366,806.25 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 | 53,467,225 | |
| -1 | 53,467,225 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 109 | 175 | 545 | 763 | 2,725 | 2,803 | 3,815 | 14,015 | 19,075 | 19,621 | 70,075 | 98,105 | 305,527 | 490,525 | 1,527,635 | 2,138,689 | 7,638,175 | 10,693,445 | 53,467,225 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -109 | -175 | -545 | -763 | -2,725 | -2,803 | -3,815 | -14,015 | -19,075 | -19,621 | -70,075 | -98,105 | -305,527 | -490,525 | -1,527,635 | -2,138,689 | -7,638,175 | -10,693,445 | -53,467,225 |
