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 57,335,509, 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 | 57,335,509 | |
| -1 | -57,335,509 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 57,335,509.
Example:
1 x 57,335,509 = 57,335,509
and
-1 x -57,335,509 = 57,335,509
Notice both answers equal 57,335,509
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 57,335,509 and divide it by 2:
57,335,509 ÷ 2 = 28,667,754.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 28,667,754.5 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 | 57,335,509 | |
| -1 | -57,335,509 |
Now, we try dividing 57,335,509 by 3:
57,335,509 ÷ 3 = 19,111,836.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 19,111,836.3333 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 | 57,335,509 | |
| -1 | -57,335,509 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
57,335,509 ÷ 4 = 14,333,877.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 14,333,877.25 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 | 57,335,509 | |
| -1 | 57,335,509 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 17 | 77 | 119 | 187 | 1,309 | 43,801 | 306,607 | 481,811 | 744,617 | 3,372,677 | 5,212,319 | 8,190,787 | 57,335,509 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -17 | -77 | -119 | -187 | -1,309 | -43,801 | -306,607 | -481,811 | -744,617 | -3,372,677 | -5,212,319 | -8,190,787 | -57,335,509 |
