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 56,772,265, 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 | 56,772,265 | |
| -1 | -56,772,265 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 56,772,265.
Example:
1 x 56,772,265 = 56,772,265
and
-1 x -56,772,265 = 56,772,265
Notice both answers equal 56,772,265
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 56,772,265 and divide it by 2:
56,772,265 ÷ 2 = 28,386,132.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 28,386,132.5 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 | 56,772,265 | |
| -1 | -56,772,265 |
Now, we try dividing 56,772,265 by 3:
56,772,265 ÷ 3 = 18,924,088.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 18,924,088.3333 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 | 56,772,265 | |
| -1 | -56,772,265 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
56,772,265 ÷ 4 = 14,193,066.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 14,193,066.25 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 | 56,772,265 | |
| -1 | 56,772,265 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 17 | 55 | 85 | 187 | 935 | 60,719 | 303,595 | 667,909 | 1,032,223 | 3,339,545 | 5,161,115 | 11,354,453 | 56,772,265 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -17 | -55 | -85 | -187 | -935 | -60,719 | -303,595 | -667,909 | -1,032,223 | -3,339,545 | -5,161,115 | -11,354,453 | -56,772,265 |
