How do I find the factor combinations of the number 53,567,700?

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 53,567,700, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.

Outside in Factoring

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 53,567,700
-1 -53,567,700

Why are the negative numbers included?

When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 53,567,700.

Example:
1 x 53,567,700 = 53,567,700
and
-1 x -53,567,700 = 53,567,700
Notice both answers equal 53,567,700

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 53,567,700 and divide it by 2:

53,567,700 ÷ 2 = 26,783,850

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 26,783,850 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 26,783,850 53,567,700
-1 -2 -26,783,850 -53,567,700

Now, we try dividing 53,567,700 by 3:

53,567,700 ÷ 3 = 17,855,900

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 17,855,900 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 17,855,900 26,783,850 53,567,700
-1 -2 -3 -17,855,900 -26,783,850 -53,567,700

Let's try dividing by 4:

53,567,700 ÷ 4 = 13,391,925

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,391,925 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 4 13,391,925 17,855,900 26,783,850 53,567,700
-1 -2 -3 -4 -13,391,925 -17,855,900 -26,783,850 53,567,700
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
