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 97,747,603, 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 | 97,747,603 | |
| -1 | -97,747,603 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 97,747,603.
Example:
1 x 97,747,603 = 97,747,603
and
-1 x -97,747,603 = 97,747,603
Notice both answers equal 97,747,603
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 97,747,603 and divide it by 2:
97,747,603 ÷ 2 = 48,873,801.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 48,873,801.5 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 | 97,747,603 | |
| -1 | -97,747,603 |
Now, we try dividing 97,747,603 by 3:
97,747,603 ÷ 3 = 32,582,534.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 32,582,534.3333 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 | 97,747,603 | |
| -1 | -97,747,603 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
97,747,603 ÷ 4 = 24,436,900.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 24,436,900.75 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 | 97,747,603 | |
| -1 | 97,747,603 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 17 | 29 | 107 | 109 | 289 | 493 | 1,819 | 1,853 | 3,103 | 3,161 | 8,381 | 11,663 | 30,923 | 31,501 | 52,751 | 53,737 | 198,271 | 338,227 | 896,767 | 913,529 | 3,370,607 | 5,749,859 | 97,747,603 |
| -1 | -17 | -29 | -107 | -109 | -289 | -493 | -1,819 | -1,853 | -3,103 | -3,161 | -8,381 | -11,663 | -30,923 | -31,501 | -52,751 | -53,737 | -198,271 | -338,227 | -896,767 | -913,529 | -3,370,607 | -5,749,859 | -97,747,603 |
