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 60,445,099, 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 | 60,445,099 | |
| -1 | -60,445,099 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 60,445,099.
Example:
1 x 60,445,099 = 60,445,099
and
-1 x -60,445,099 = 60,445,099
Notice both answers equal 60,445,099
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 60,445,099 and divide it by 2:
60,445,099 ÷ 2 = 30,222,549.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 30,222,549.5 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 | 60,445,099 | |
| -1 | -60,445,099 |
Now, we try dividing 60,445,099 by 3:
60,445,099 ÷ 3 = 20,148,366.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 20,148,366.3333 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 | 60,445,099 | |
| -1 | -60,445,099 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
60,445,099 ÷ 4 = 15,111,274.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 15,111,274.75 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 | 60,445,099 | |
| -1 | 60,445,099 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 19 | 143 | 209 | 247 | 2,717 | 22,247 | 244,717 | 289,211 | 422,693 | 3,181,321 | 4,649,623 | 5,495,009 | 60,445,099 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -19 | -143 | -209 | -247 | -2,717 | -22,247 | -244,717 | -289,211 | -422,693 | -3,181,321 | -4,649,623 | -5,495,009 | -60,445,099 |
