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 62,344,135, 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 | 62,344,135 | |
| -1 | -62,344,135 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 62,344,135.
Example:
1 x 62,344,135 = 62,344,135
and
-1 x -62,344,135 = 62,344,135
Notice both answers equal 62,344,135
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 62,344,135 and divide it by 2:
62,344,135 ÷ 2 = 31,172,067.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 31,172,067.5 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 | 62,344,135 | |
| -1 | -62,344,135 |
Now, we try dividing 62,344,135 by 3:
62,344,135 ÷ 3 = 20,781,378.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 20,781,378.3333 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 | 62,344,135 | |
| -1 | -62,344,135 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
62,344,135 ÷ 4 = 15,586,033.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 15,586,033.75 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 | 62,344,135 | |
| -1 | 62,344,135 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 61 | 305 | 427 | 2,135 | 29,201 | 146,005 | 204,407 | 1,022,035 | 1,781,261 | 8,906,305 | 12,468,827 | 62,344,135 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -61 | -305 | -427 | -2,135 | -29,201 | -146,005 | -204,407 | -1,022,035 | -1,781,261 | -8,906,305 | -12,468,827 | -62,344,135 |
