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 102,735,035, 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 | 102,735,035 | |
| -1 | -102,735,035 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 102,735,035.
Example:
1 x 102,735,035 = 102,735,035
and
-1 x -102,735,035 = 102,735,035
Notice both answers equal 102,735,035
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 102,735,035 and divide it by 2:
102,735,035 ÷ 2 = 51,367,517.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 51,367,517.5 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 | 102,735,035 | |
| -1 | -102,735,035 |
Now, we try dividing 102,735,035 by 3:
102,735,035 ÷ 3 = 34,245,011.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 34,245,011.6667 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 | 102,735,035 | |
| -1 | -102,735,035 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
102,735,035 ÷ 4 = 25,683,758.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 25,683,758.75 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 | 102,735,035 | |
| -1 | 102,735,035 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 1,213 | 1,303 | 6,065 | 6,515 | 15,769 | 16,939 | 78,845 | 84,695 | 1,580,539 | 7,902,695 | 20,547,007 | 102,735,035 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -1,213 | -1,303 | -6,065 | -6,515 | -15,769 | -16,939 | -78,845 | -84,695 | -1,580,539 | -7,902,695 | -20,547,007 | -102,735,035 |
