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 92,848,951, 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 | 92,848,951 | |
| -1 | -92,848,951 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 92,848,951.
Example:
1 x 92,848,951 = 92,848,951
and
-1 x -92,848,951 = 92,848,951
Notice both answers equal 92,848,951
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 92,848,951 and divide it by 2:
92,848,951 ÷ 2 = 46,424,475.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 46,424,475.5 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 | 92,848,951 | |
| -1 | -92,848,951 |
Now, we try dividing 92,848,951 by 3:
92,848,951 ÷ 3 = 30,949,650.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 30,949,650.3333 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 | 92,848,951 | |
| -1 | -92,848,951 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
92,848,951 ÷ 4 = 23,212,237.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 23,212,237.75 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 | 92,848,951 | |
| -1 | 92,848,951 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 17 | 53 | 221 | 689 | 901 | 7,927 | 11,713 | 103,051 | 134,759 | 420,131 | 1,751,867 | 5,461,703 | 7,142,227 | 92,848,951 |
| -1 | -13 | -17 | -53 | -221 | -689 | -901 | -7,927 | -11,713 | -103,051 | -134,759 | -420,131 | -1,751,867 | -5,461,703 | -7,142,227 | -92,848,951 |
