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 54,494,935, 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 | 54,494,935 | |
| -1 | -54,494,935 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 54,494,935.
Example:
1 x 54,494,935 = 54,494,935
and
-1 x -54,494,935 = 54,494,935
Notice both answers equal 54,494,935
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 54,494,935 and divide it by 2:
54,494,935 ÷ 2 = 27,247,467.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 27,247,467.5 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 | 54,494,935 | |
| -1 | -54,494,935 |
Now, we try dividing 54,494,935 by 3:
54,494,935 ÷ 3 = 18,164,978.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 18,164,978.3333 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 | 54,494,935 | |
| -1 | -54,494,935 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
54,494,935 ÷ 4 = 13,623,733.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 13,623,733.75 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 | 54,494,935 | |
| -1 | 54,494,935 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 23 | 55 | 115 | 253 | 529 | 1,265 | 1,873 | 2,645 | 5,819 | 9,365 | 20,603 | 29,095 | 43,079 | 103,015 | 215,395 | 473,869 | 990,817 | 2,369,345 | 4,954,085 | 10,898,987 | 54,494,935 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -23 | -55 | -115 | -253 | -529 | -1,265 | -1,873 | -2,645 | -5,819 | -9,365 | -20,603 | -29,095 | -43,079 | -103,015 | -215,395 | -473,869 | -990,817 | -2,369,345 | -4,954,085 | -10,898,987 | -54,494,935 |
