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 57,394,795, 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 | 57,394,795 | |
| -1 | -57,394,795 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 57,394,795.
Example:
1 x 57,394,795 = 57,394,795
and
-1 x -57,394,795 = 57,394,795
Notice both answers equal 57,394,795
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 57,394,795 and divide it by 2:
57,394,795 ÷ 2 = 28,697,397.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 28,697,397.5 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 | 57,394,795 | |
| -1 | -57,394,795 |
Now, we try dividing 57,394,795 by 3:
57,394,795 ÷ 3 = 19,131,598.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 19,131,598.3333 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 | 57,394,795 | |
| -1 | -57,394,795 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
57,394,795 ÷ 4 = 14,348,698.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 14,348,698.75 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 | 57,394,795 | |
| -1 | 57,394,795 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 31 | 155 | 349 | 1,061 | 1,745 | 5,305 | 10,819 | 32,891 | 54,095 | 164,455 | 370,289 | 1,851,445 | 11,478,959 | 57,394,795 |
| -1 | -5 | -31 | -155 | -349 | -1,061 | -1,745 | -5,305 | -10,819 | -32,891 | -54,095 | -164,455 | -370,289 | -1,851,445 | -11,478,959 | -57,394,795 |
