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 79,594,823, 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 | 79,594,823 | |
| -1 | -79,594,823 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 79,594,823.
Example:
1 x 79,594,823 = 79,594,823
and
-1 x -79,594,823 = 79,594,823
Notice both answers equal 79,594,823
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 79,594,823 and divide it by 2:
79,594,823 ÷ 2 = 39,797,411.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 39,797,411.5 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 | 79,594,823 | |
| -1 | -79,594,823 |
Now, we try dividing 79,594,823 by 3:
79,594,823 ÷ 3 = 26,531,607.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 26,531,607.6667 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 | 79,594,823 | |
| -1 | -79,594,823 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
79,594,823 ÷ 4 = 19,898,705.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 19,898,705.75 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 | 79,594,823 | |
| -1 | 79,594,823 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 77 | 653 | 1,583 | 4,571 | 7,183 | 11,081 | 17,413 | 50,281 | 121,891 | 1,033,699 | 7,235,893 | 11,370,689 | 79,594,823 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -77 | -653 | -1,583 | -4,571 | -7,183 | -11,081 | -17,413 | -50,281 | -121,891 | -1,033,699 | -7,235,893 | -11,370,689 | -79,594,823 |
