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 95,179,133, 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 | 95,179,133 | |
| -1 | -95,179,133 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 95,179,133.
Example:
1 x 95,179,133 = 95,179,133
and
-1 x -95,179,133 = 95,179,133
Notice both answers equal 95,179,133
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 95,179,133 and divide it by 2:
95,179,133 ÷ 2 = 47,589,566.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 47,589,566.5 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 | 95,179,133 | |
| -1 | -95,179,133 |
Now, we try dividing 95,179,133 by 3:
95,179,133 ÷ 3 = 31,726,377.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 31,726,377.6667 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 | 95,179,133 | |
| -1 | -95,179,133 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
95,179,133 ÷ 4 = 23,794,783.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 23,794,783.25 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 | 95,179,133 | |
| -1 | 95,179,133 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 37 | 179 | 259 | 1,253 | 2,053 | 6,623 | 14,371 | 46,361 | 75,961 | 367,487 | 531,727 | 2,572,409 | 13,597,019 | 95,179,133 |
| -1 | -7 | -37 | -179 | -259 | -1,253 | -2,053 | -6,623 | -14,371 | -46,361 | -75,961 | -367,487 | -531,727 | -2,572,409 | -13,597,019 | -95,179,133 |
