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 58,585,723, 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 | 58,585,723 | |
| -1 | -58,585,723 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 58,585,723.
Example:
1 x 58,585,723 = 58,585,723
and
-1 x -58,585,723 = 58,585,723
Notice both answers equal 58,585,723
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 58,585,723 and divide it by 2:
58,585,723 ÷ 2 = 29,292,861.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 29,292,861.5 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 | 58,585,723 | |
| -1 | -58,585,723 |
Now, we try dividing 58,585,723 by 3:
58,585,723 ÷ 3 = 19,528,574.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 19,528,574.3333 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 | 58,585,723 | |
| -1 | -58,585,723 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
58,585,723 ÷ 4 = 14,646,430.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 14,646,430.75 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 | 58,585,723 | |
| -1 | 58,585,723 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 49 | 53 | 119 | 371 | 833 | 901 | 1,327 | 2,597 | 6,307 | 9,289 | 22,559 | 44,149 | 65,023 | 70,331 | 157,913 | 492,317 | 1,105,391 | 1,195,627 | 3,446,219 | 8,369,389 | 58,585,723 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -49 | -53 | -119 | -371 | -833 | -901 | -1,327 | -2,597 | -6,307 | -9,289 | -22,559 | -44,149 | -65,023 | -70,331 | -157,913 | -492,317 | -1,105,391 | -1,195,627 | -3,446,219 | -8,369,389 | -58,585,723 |
