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 92,248,835, 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 | 92,248,835 | |
| -1 | -92,248,835 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 92,248,835.
Example:
1 x 92,248,835 = 92,248,835
and
-1 x -92,248,835 = 92,248,835
Notice both answers equal 92,248,835
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 92,248,835 and divide it by 2:
92,248,835 ÷ 2 = 46,124,417.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 46,124,417.5 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 | 92,248,835 | |
| -1 | -92,248,835 |
Now, we try dividing 92,248,835 by 3:
92,248,835 ÷ 3 = 30,749,611.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 30,749,611.6667 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 | 92,248,835 | |
| -1 | -92,248,835 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
92,248,835 ÷ 4 = 23,062,208.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 23,062,208.75 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 | 92,248,835 | |
| -1 | 92,248,835 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 1,123 | 2,347 | 5,615 | 7,861 | 11,735 | 16,429 | 39,305 | 82,145 | 2,635,681 | 13,178,405 | 18,449,767 | 92,248,835 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -1,123 | -2,347 | -5,615 | -7,861 | -11,735 | -16,429 | -39,305 | -82,145 | -2,635,681 | -13,178,405 | -18,449,767 | -92,248,835 |
