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 57,023,005, 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 | 57,023,005 | |
| -1 | -57,023,005 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 57,023,005.
Example:
1 x 57,023,005 = 57,023,005
and
-1 x -57,023,005 = 57,023,005
Notice both answers equal 57,023,005
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 57,023,005 and divide it by 2:
57,023,005 ÷ 2 = 28,511,502.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 28,511,502.5 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 | 57,023,005 | |
| -1 | -57,023,005 |
Now, we try dividing 57,023,005 by 3:
57,023,005 ÷ 3 = 19,007,668.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 19,007,668.3333 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 | 57,023,005 | |
| -1 | -57,023,005 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
57,023,005 ÷ 4 = 14,255,751.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 14,255,751.25 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 | 57,023,005 | |
| -1 | 57,023,005 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 41 | 65 | 205 | 533 | 2,665 | 21,397 | 106,985 | 278,161 | 877,277 | 1,390,805 | 4,386,385 | 11,404,601 | 57,023,005 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -41 | -65 | -205 | -533 | -2,665 | -21,397 | -106,985 | -278,161 | -877,277 | -1,390,805 | -4,386,385 | -11,404,601 | -57,023,005 |
