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 88,640,833, 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 | 88,640,833 | |
| -1 | -88,640,833 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 88,640,833.
Example:
1 x 88,640,833 = 88,640,833
and
-1 x -88,640,833 = 88,640,833
Notice both answers equal 88,640,833
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 88,640,833 and divide it by 2:
88,640,833 ÷ 2 = 44,320,416.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 44,320,416.5 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 | 88,640,833 | |
| -1 | -88,640,833 |
Now, we try dividing 88,640,833 by 3:
88,640,833 ÷ 3 = 29,546,944.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 29,546,944.3333 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 | 88,640,833 | |
| -1 | -88,640,833 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
88,640,833 ÷ 4 = 22,160,208.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 22,160,208.25 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 | 88,640,833 | |
| -1 | 88,640,833 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 59 | 107 | 739 | 1,121 | 2,033 | 6,313 | 14,041 | 43,601 | 79,073 | 119,947 | 828,419 | 1,502,387 | 4,665,307 | 88,640,833 |
| -1 | -19 | -59 | -107 | -739 | -1,121 | -2,033 | -6,313 | -14,041 | -43,601 | -79,073 | -119,947 | -828,419 | -1,502,387 | -4,665,307 | -88,640,833 |
