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 57,950,225, 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 | 57,950,225 | |
| -1 | -57,950,225 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 57,950,225.
Example:
1 x 57,950,225 = 57,950,225
and
-1 x -57,950,225 = 57,950,225
Notice both answers equal 57,950,225
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 57,950,225 and divide it by 2:
57,950,225 ÷ 2 = 28,975,112.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 28,975,112.5 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 | 57,950,225 | |
| -1 | -57,950,225 |
Now, we try dividing 57,950,225 by 3:
57,950,225 ÷ 3 = 19,316,741.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 19,316,741.6667 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 | 57,950,225 | |
| -1 | -57,950,225 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
57,950,225 ÷ 4 = 14,487,556.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 14,487,556.25 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 | 57,950,225 | |
| -1 | 57,950,225 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 25 | 97 | 115 | 485 | 575 | 1,039 | 2,231 | 2,425 | 5,195 | 11,155 | 23,897 | 25,975 | 55,775 | 100,783 | 119,485 | 503,915 | 597,425 | 2,318,009 | 2,519,575 | 11,590,045 | 57,950,225 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -25 | -97 | -115 | -485 | -575 | -1,039 | -2,231 | -2,425 | -5,195 | -11,155 | -23,897 | -25,975 | -55,775 | -100,783 | -119,485 | -503,915 | -597,425 | -2,318,009 | -2,519,575 | -11,590,045 | -57,950,225 |
