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 57,003,355, 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 | 57,003,355 | |
| -1 | -57,003,355 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 57,003,355.
Example:
1 x 57,003,355 = 57,003,355
and
-1 x -57,003,355 = 57,003,355
Notice both answers equal 57,003,355
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 57,003,355 and divide it by 2:
57,003,355 ÷ 2 = 28,501,677.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 28,501,677.5 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 | 57,003,355 | |
| -1 | -57,003,355 |
Now, we try dividing 57,003,355 by 3:
57,003,355 ÷ 3 = 19,001,118.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 19,001,118.3333 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 | 57,003,355 | |
| -1 | -57,003,355 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
57,003,355 ÷ 4 = 14,250,838.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 14,250,838.75 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 | 57,003,355 | |
| -1 | 57,003,355 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 53 | 251 | 265 | 857 | 1,255 | 4,285 | 13,303 | 45,421 | 66,515 | 215,107 | 227,105 | 1,075,535 | 11,400,671 | 57,003,355 |
| -1 | -5 | -53 | -251 | -265 | -857 | -1,255 | -4,285 | -13,303 | -45,421 | -66,515 | -215,107 | -227,105 | -1,075,535 | -11,400,671 | -57,003,355 |
