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 26,825,095, 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 | 26,825,095 | |
| -1 | -26,825,095 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 26,825,095.
Example:
1 x 26,825,095 = 26,825,095
and
-1 x -26,825,095 = 26,825,095
Notice both answers equal 26,825,095
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 26,825,095 and divide it by 2:
26,825,095 ÷ 2 = 13,412,547.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 13,412,547.5 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 | 26,825,095 | |
| -1 | -26,825,095 |
Now, we try dividing 26,825,095 by 3:
26,825,095 ÷ 3 = 8,941,698.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 8,941,698.3333 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 | 26,825,095 | |
| -1 | -26,825,095 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
26,825,095 ÷ 4 = 6,706,273.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 6,706,273.75 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 | 26,825,095 | |
| -1 | 26,825,095 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 101 | 121 | 439 | 505 | 605 | 1,111 | 2,195 | 4,829 | 5,555 | 12,221 | 24,145 | 44,339 | 53,119 | 61,105 | 221,695 | 265,595 | 487,729 | 2,438,645 | 5,365,019 | 26,825,095 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -101 | -121 | -439 | -505 | -605 | -1,111 | -2,195 | -4,829 | -5,555 | -12,221 | -24,145 | -44,339 | -53,119 | -61,105 | -221,695 | -265,595 | -487,729 | -2,438,645 | -5,365,019 | -26,825,095 |
