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 135,535,067, 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 | 135,535,067 | |
| -1 | -135,535,067 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 135,535,067.
Example:
1 x 135,535,067 = 135,535,067
and
-1 x -135,535,067 = 135,535,067
Notice both answers equal 135,535,067
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 135,535,067 and divide it by 2:
135,535,067 ÷ 2 = 67,767,533.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 67,767,533.5 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 | 135,535,067 | |
| -1 | -135,535,067 |
Now, we try dividing 135,535,067 by 3:
135,535,067 ÷ 3 = 45,178,355.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 45,178,355.6667 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 | 135,535,067 | |
| -1 | -135,535,067 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
135,535,067 ÷ 4 = 33,883,766.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 33,883,766.75 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 | 135,535,067 | |
| -1 | 135,535,067 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 17 | 23 | 29 | 391 | 493 | 667 | 11,339 | 11,953 | 203,201 | 274,919 | 346,637 | 4,673,623 | 5,892,829 | 7,972,651 | 135,535,067 |
| -1 | -17 | -23 | -29 | -391 | -493 | -667 | -11,339 | -11,953 | -203,201 | -274,919 | -346,637 | -4,673,623 | -5,892,829 | -7,972,651 | -135,535,067 |
