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 84,714,475, 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 | 84,714,475 | |
| -1 | -84,714,475 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 84,714,475.
Example:
1 x 84,714,475 = 84,714,475
and
-1 x -84,714,475 = 84,714,475
Notice both answers equal 84,714,475
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 84,714,475 and divide it by 2:
84,714,475 ÷ 2 = 42,357,237.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 42,357,237.5 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 | 84,714,475 | |
| -1 | -84,714,475 |
Now, we try dividing 84,714,475 by 3:
84,714,475 ÷ 3 = 28,238,158.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 28,238,158.3333 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 | 84,714,475 | |
| -1 | -84,714,475 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
84,714,475 ÷ 4 = 21,178,618.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 21,178,618.75 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 | 84,714,475 | |
| -1 | 84,714,475 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 31 | 155 | 281 | 389 | 775 | 1,405 | 1,945 | 7,025 | 8,711 | 9,725 | 12,059 | 43,555 | 60,295 | 109,309 | 217,775 | 301,475 | 546,545 | 2,732,725 | 3,388,579 | 16,942,895 | 84,714,475 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -31 | -155 | -281 | -389 | -775 | -1,405 | -1,945 | -7,025 | -8,711 | -9,725 | -12,059 | -43,555 | -60,295 | -109,309 | -217,775 | -301,475 | -546,545 | -2,732,725 | -3,388,579 | -16,942,895 | -84,714,475 |
