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 17,574,035, 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 | 17,574,035 | |
| -1 | -17,574,035 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 17,574,035.
Example:
1 x 17,574,035 = 17,574,035
and
-1 x -17,574,035 = 17,574,035
Notice both answers equal 17,574,035
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 17,574,035 and divide it by 2:
17,574,035 ÷ 2 = 8,787,017.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 8,787,017.5 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 | 17,574,035 | |
| -1 | -17,574,035 |
Now, we try dividing 17,574,035 by 3:
17,574,035 ÷ 3 = 5,858,011.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 5,858,011.6667 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 | 17,574,035 | |
| -1 | -17,574,035 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
17,574,035 ÷ 4 = 4,393,508.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 4,393,508.75 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 | 17,574,035 | |
| -1 | 17,574,035 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 41 | 59 | 205 | 295 | 1,453 | 2,419 | 7,265 | 12,095 | 59,573 | 85,727 | 297,865 | 428,635 | 3,514,807 | 17,574,035 |
| -1 | -5 | -41 | -59 | -205 | -295 | -1,453 | -2,419 | -7,265 | -12,095 | -59,573 | -85,727 | -297,865 | -428,635 | -3,514,807 | -17,574,035 |
