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 54,002,575, 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 | 54,002,575 | |
| -1 | -54,002,575 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 54,002,575.
Example:
1 x 54,002,575 = 54,002,575
and
-1 x -54,002,575 = 54,002,575
Notice both answers equal 54,002,575
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 54,002,575 and divide it by 2:
54,002,575 ÷ 2 = 27,001,287.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 27,001,287.5 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 | 54,002,575 | |
| -1 | -54,002,575 |
Now, we try dividing 54,002,575 by 3:
54,002,575 ÷ 3 = 18,000,858.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 18,000,858.3333 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 | 54,002,575 | |
| -1 | -54,002,575 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
54,002,575 ÷ 4 = 13,500,643.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,500,643.75 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 | 54,002,575 | |
| -1 | 54,002,575 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 55 | 275 | 359 | 547 | 1,795 | 2,735 | 3,949 | 6,017 | 8,975 | 13,675 | 19,745 | 30,085 | 98,725 | 150,425 | 196,373 | 981,865 | 2,160,103 | 4,909,325 | 10,800,515 | 54,002,575 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -55 | -275 | -359 | -547 | -1,795 | -2,735 | -3,949 | -6,017 | -8,975 | -13,675 | -19,745 | -30,085 | -98,725 | -150,425 | -196,373 | -981,865 | -2,160,103 | -4,909,325 | -10,800,515 | -54,002,575 |
