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 111,144,211, 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 | 111,144,211 | |
| -1 | -111,144,211 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 111,144,211.
Example:
1 x 111,144,211 = 111,144,211
and
-1 x -111,144,211 = 111,144,211
Notice both answers equal 111,144,211
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 111,144,211 and divide it by 2:
111,144,211 ÷ 2 = 55,572,105.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 55,572,105.5 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 | 111,144,211 | |
| -1 | -111,144,211 |
Now, we try dividing 111,144,211 by 3:
111,144,211 ÷ 3 = 37,048,070.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 37,048,070.3333 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 | 111,144,211 | |
| -1 | -111,144,211 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
111,144,211 ÷ 4 = 27,786,052.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 27,786,052.75 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 | 111,144,211 | |
| -1 | 111,144,211 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 23 | 29 | 281 | 593 | 667 | 6,463 | 8,149 | 13,639 | 17,197 | 166,633 | 187,427 | 395,531 | 3,832,559 | 4,832,357 | 111,144,211 |
| -1 | -23 | -29 | -281 | -593 | -667 | -6,463 | -8,149 | -13,639 | -17,197 | -166,633 | -187,427 | -395,531 | -3,832,559 | -4,832,357 | -111,144,211 |
