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 32,433,335, 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 | 32,433,335 | |
| -1 | -32,433,335 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 32,433,335.
Example:
1 x 32,433,335 = 32,433,335
and
-1 x -32,433,335 = 32,433,335
Notice both answers equal 32,433,335
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 32,433,335 and divide it by 2:
32,433,335 ÷ 2 = 16,216,667.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,216,667.5 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 | 32,433,335 | |
| -1 | -32,433,335 |
Now, we try dividing 32,433,335 by 3:
32,433,335 ÷ 3 = 10,811,111.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 10,811,111.6667 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 | 32,433,335 | |
| -1 | -32,433,335 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
32,433,335 ÷ 4 = 8,108,333.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,108,333.75 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 | 32,433,335 | |
| -1 | 32,433,335 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 23 | 55 | 115 | 253 | 1,265 | 25,639 | 128,195 | 282,029 | 589,697 | 1,410,145 | 2,948,485 | 6,486,667 | 32,433,335 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -23 | -55 | -115 | -253 | -1,265 | -25,639 | -128,195 | -282,029 | -589,697 | -1,410,145 | -2,948,485 | -6,486,667 | -32,433,335 |
