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 53,535,833, 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 | 53,535,833 | |
| -1 | -53,535,833 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 53,535,833.
Example:
1 x 53,535,833 = 53,535,833
and
-1 x -53,535,833 = 53,535,833
Notice both answers equal 53,535,833
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 53,535,833 and divide it by 2:
53,535,833 ÷ 2 = 26,767,916.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,767,916.5 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 | 53,535,833 | |
| -1 | -53,535,833 |
Now, we try dividing 53,535,833 by 3:
53,535,833 ÷ 3 = 17,845,277.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,845,277.6667 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 | 53,535,833 | |
| -1 | -53,535,833 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
53,535,833 ÷ 4 = 13,383,958.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,383,958.25 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 | 53,535,833 | |
| -1 | 53,535,833 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 59 | 223 | 313 | 767 | 2,899 | 4,069 | 13,157 | 18,467 | 69,799 | 171,041 | 240,071 | 907,387 | 4,118,141 | 53,535,833 |
| -1 | -13 | -59 | -223 | -313 | -767 | -2,899 | -4,069 | -13,157 | -18,467 | -69,799 | -171,041 | -240,071 | -907,387 | -4,118,141 | -53,535,833 |
