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 19,534,735, 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 | 19,534,735 | |
| -1 | -19,534,735 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 19,534,735.
Example:
1 x 19,534,735 = 19,534,735
and
-1 x -19,534,735 = 19,534,735
Notice both answers equal 19,534,735
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 19,534,735 and divide it by 2:
19,534,735 ÷ 2 = 9,767,367.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 9,767,367.5 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 | 19,534,735 | |
| -1 | -19,534,735 |
Now, we try dividing 19,534,735 by 3:
19,534,735 ÷ 3 = 6,511,578.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 6,511,578.3333 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 | 19,534,735 | |
| -1 | -19,534,735 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
19,534,735 ÷ 4 = 4,883,683.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 4,883,683.75 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 | 19,534,735 | |
| -1 | 19,534,735 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 163 | 815 | 1,793 | 2,179 | 8,965 | 10,895 | 23,969 | 119,845 | 355,177 | 1,775,885 | 3,906,947 | 19,534,735 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -163 | -815 | -1,793 | -2,179 | -8,965 | -10,895 | -23,969 | -119,845 | -355,177 | -1,775,885 | -3,906,947 | -19,534,735 |
