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 54,455,225, 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 | 54,455,225 | |
| -1 | -54,455,225 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 54,455,225.
Example:
1 x 54,455,225 = 54,455,225
and
-1 x -54,455,225 = 54,455,225
Notice both answers equal 54,455,225
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 54,455,225 and divide it by 2:
54,455,225 ÷ 2 = 27,227,612.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 27,227,612.5 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 | 54,455,225 | |
| -1 | -54,455,225 |
Now, we try dividing 54,455,225 by 3:
54,455,225 ÷ 3 = 18,151,741.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 18,151,741.6667 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 | 54,455,225 | |
| -1 | -54,455,225 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
54,455,225 ÷ 4 = 13,613,806.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,613,806.25 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 | 54,455,225 | |
| -1 | 54,455,225 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 55 | 71 | 275 | 355 | 781 | 1,775 | 2,789 | 3,905 | 13,945 | 19,525 | 30,679 | 69,725 | 153,395 | 198,019 | 766,975 | 990,095 | 2,178,209 | 4,950,475 | 10,891,045 | 54,455,225 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -55 | -71 | -275 | -355 | -781 | -1,775 | -2,789 | -3,905 | -13,945 | -19,525 | -30,679 | -69,725 | -153,395 | -198,019 | -766,975 | -990,095 | -2,178,209 | -4,950,475 | -10,891,045 | -54,455,225 |
