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 32,301,035, 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 | 32,301,035 | |
| -1 | -32,301,035 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 32,301,035.
Example:
1 x 32,301,035 = 32,301,035
and
-1 x -32,301,035 = 32,301,035
Notice both answers equal 32,301,035
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 32,301,035 and divide it by 2:
32,301,035 ÷ 2 = 16,150,517.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,150,517.5 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 | 32,301,035 | |
| -1 | -32,301,035 |
Now, we try dividing 32,301,035 by 3:
32,301,035 ÷ 3 = 10,767,011.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 10,767,011.6667 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 | 32,301,035 | |
| -1 | -32,301,035 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
32,301,035 ÷ 4 = 8,075,258.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,075,258.75 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 | 32,301,035 | |
| -1 | 32,301,035 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 67 | 335 | 871 | 4,355 | 7,417 | 37,085 | 96,421 | 482,105 | 496,939 | 2,484,695 | 6,460,207 | 32,301,035 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -67 | -335 | -871 | -4,355 | -7,417 | -37,085 | -96,421 | -482,105 | -496,939 | -2,484,695 | -6,460,207 | -32,301,035 |
