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 26,325,167, 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 | 26,325,167 | |
| -1 | -26,325,167 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 26,325,167.
Example:
1 x 26,325,167 = 26,325,167
and
-1 x -26,325,167 = 26,325,167
Notice both answers equal 26,325,167
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 26,325,167 and divide it by 2:
26,325,167 ÷ 2 = 13,162,583.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 13,162,583.5 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 | 26,325,167 | |
| -1 | -26,325,167 |
Now, we try dividing 26,325,167 by 3:
26,325,167 ÷ 3 = 8,775,055.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 8,775,055.6667 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 | 26,325,167 | |
| -1 | -26,325,167 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
26,325,167 ÷ 4 = 6,581,291.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 6,581,291.75 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 | 26,325,167 | |
| -1 | 26,325,167 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 37 | 71 | 407 | 781 | 911 | 2,627 | 10,021 | 28,897 | 33,707 | 64,681 | 370,777 | 711,491 | 2,393,197 | 26,325,167 |
| -1 | -11 | -37 | -71 | -407 | -781 | -911 | -2,627 | -10,021 | -28,897 | -33,707 | -64,681 | -370,777 | -711,491 | -2,393,197 | -26,325,167 |
