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 82,755,337, 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 | 82,755,337 | |
| -1 | -82,755,337 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 82,755,337.
Example:
1 x 82,755,337 = 82,755,337
and
-1 x -82,755,337 = 82,755,337
Notice both answers equal 82,755,337
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 82,755,337 and divide it by 2:
82,755,337 ÷ 2 = 41,377,668.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 41,377,668.5 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 | 82,755,337 | |
| -1 | -82,755,337 |
Now, we try dividing 82,755,337 by 3:
82,755,337 ÷ 3 = 27,585,112.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 27,585,112.3333 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 | 82,755,337 | |
| -1 | -82,755,337 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
82,755,337 ÷ 4 = 20,688,834.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 20,688,834.25 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 | 82,755,337 | |
| -1 | 82,755,337 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 31 | 119 | 217 | 527 | 3,689 | 22,433 | 157,031 | 381,361 | 695,423 | 2,669,527 | 4,867,961 | 11,822,191 | 82,755,337 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -31 | -119 | -217 | -527 | -3,689 | -22,433 | -157,031 | -381,361 | -695,423 | -2,669,527 | -4,867,961 | -11,822,191 | -82,755,337 |
