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 93,307,235, 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 | 93,307,235 | |
| -1 | -93,307,235 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 93,307,235.
Example:
1 x 93,307,235 = 93,307,235
and
-1 x -93,307,235 = 93,307,235
Notice both answers equal 93,307,235
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 93,307,235 and divide it by 2:
93,307,235 ÷ 2 = 46,653,617.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 46,653,617.5 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 | 93,307,235 | |
| -1 | -93,307,235 |
Now, we try dividing 93,307,235 by 3:
93,307,235 ÷ 3 = 31,102,411.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 31,102,411.6667 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 | 93,307,235 | |
| -1 | -93,307,235 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
93,307,235 ÷ 4 = 23,326,808.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 23,326,808.75 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 | 93,307,235 | |
| -1 | 93,307,235 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 733 | 3,637 | 3,665 | 5,131 | 18,185 | 25,459 | 25,655 | 127,295 | 2,665,921 | 13,329,605 | 18,661,447 | 93,307,235 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -733 | -3,637 | -3,665 | -5,131 | -18,185 | -25,459 | -25,655 | -127,295 | -2,665,921 | -13,329,605 | -18,661,447 | -93,307,235 |
