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 57,509,963, 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 | 57,509,963 | |
| -1 | -57,509,963 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 57,509,963.
Example:
1 x 57,509,963 = 57,509,963
and
-1 x -57,509,963 = 57,509,963
Notice both answers equal 57,509,963
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 57,509,963 and divide it by 2:
57,509,963 ÷ 2 = 28,754,981.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 28,754,981.5 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 | 57,509,963 | |
| -1 | -57,509,963 |
Now, we try dividing 57,509,963 by 3:
57,509,963 ÷ 3 = 19,169,987.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 19,169,987.6667 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 | 57,509,963 | |
| -1 | -57,509,963 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
57,509,963 ÷ 4 = 14,377,490.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 14,377,490.75 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 | 57,509,963 | |
| -1 | 57,509,963 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 43 | 119 | 301 | 731 | 5,117 | 11,239 | 78,673 | 191,063 | 483,277 | 1,337,441 | 3,382,939 | 8,215,709 | 57,509,963 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -43 | -119 | -301 | -731 | -5,117 | -11,239 | -78,673 | -191,063 | -483,277 | -1,337,441 | -3,382,939 | -8,215,709 | -57,509,963 |
