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 11,224,235, 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 | 11,224,235 | |
| -1 | -11,224,235 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 11,224,235.
Example:
1 x 11,224,235 = 11,224,235
and
-1 x -11,224,235 = 11,224,235
Notice both answers equal 11,224,235
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 11,224,235 and divide it by 2:
11,224,235 ÷ 2 = 5,612,117.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,612,117.5 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 | 11,224,235 | |
| -1 | -11,224,235 |
Now, we try dividing 11,224,235 by 3:
11,224,235 ÷ 3 = 3,741,411.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,741,411.6667 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 | 11,224,235 | |
| -1 | -11,224,235 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
11,224,235 ÷ 4 = 2,806,058.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,806,058.75 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 | 11,224,235 | |
| -1 | 11,224,235 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 89 | 445 | 979 | 2,293 | 4,895 | 11,465 | 25,223 | 126,115 | 204,077 | 1,020,385 | 2,244,847 | 11,224,235 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -89 | -445 | -979 | -2,293 | -4,895 | -11,465 | -25,223 | -126,115 | -204,077 | -1,020,385 | -2,244,847 | -11,224,235 |
