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 60,650,057, 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 | 60,650,057 | |
| -1 | -60,650,057 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 60,650,057.
Example:
1 x 60,650,057 = 60,650,057
and
-1 x -60,650,057 = 60,650,057
Notice both answers equal 60,650,057
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 60,650,057 and divide it by 2:
60,650,057 ÷ 2 = 30,325,028.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 30,325,028.5 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 | 60,650,057 | |
| -1 | -60,650,057 |
Now, we try dividing 60,650,057 by 3:
60,650,057 ÷ 3 = 20,216,685.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 20,216,685.6667 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 | 60,650,057 | |
| -1 | -60,650,057 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
60,650,057 ÷ 4 = 15,162,514.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 15,162,514.25 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 | 60,650,057 | |
| -1 | 60,650,057 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 23 | 193 | 299 | 1,051 | 2,509 | 4,439 | 13,663 | 24,173 | 57,707 | 202,843 | 314,249 | 2,636,959 | 4,665,389 | 60,650,057 |
| -1 | -13 | -23 | -193 | -299 | -1,051 | -2,509 | -4,439 | -13,663 | -24,173 | -57,707 | -202,843 | -314,249 | -2,636,959 | -4,665,389 | -60,650,057 |
