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 54,002,365, 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 | 54,002,365 | |
| -1 | -54,002,365 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 54,002,365.
Example:
1 x 54,002,365 = 54,002,365
and
-1 x -54,002,365 = 54,002,365
Notice both answers equal 54,002,365
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 54,002,365 and divide it by 2:
54,002,365 ÷ 2 = 27,001,182.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 27,001,182.5 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 | 54,002,365 | |
| -1 | -54,002,365 |
Now, we try dividing 54,002,365 by 3:
54,002,365 ÷ 3 = 18,000,788.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 18,000,788.3333 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 | 54,002,365 | |
| -1 | -54,002,365 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
54,002,365 ÷ 4 = 13,500,591.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,500,591.25 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 | 54,002,365 | |
| -1 | 54,002,365 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 107 | 193 | 523 | 535 | 965 | 2,615 | 20,651 | 55,961 | 100,939 | 103,255 | 279,805 | 504,695 | 10,800,473 | 54,002,365 |
| -1 | -5 | -107 | -193 | -523 | -535 | -965 | -2,615 | -20,651 | -55,961 | -100,939 | -103,255 | -279,805 | -504,695 | -10,800,473 | -54,002,365 |
