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 32,560,525, 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 | 32,560,525 | |
| -1 | -32,560,525 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 32,560,525.
Example:
1 x 32,560,525 = 32,560,525
and
-1 x -32,560,525 = 32,560,525
Notice both answers equal 32,560,525
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 32,560,525 and divide it by 2:
32,560,525 ÷ 2 = 16,280,262.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,280,262.5 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 | 32,560,525 | |
| -1 | -32,560,525 |
Now, we try dividing 32,560,525 by 3:
32,560,525 ÷ 3 = 10,853,508.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 10,853,508.3333 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 | 32,560,525 | |
| -1 | -32,560,525 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
32,560,525 ÷ 4 = 8,140,131.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,140,131.25 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 | 32,560,525 | |
| -1 | 32,560,525 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 23 | 25 | 85 | 115 | 391 | 425 | 575 | 1,955 | 3,331 | 9,775 | 16,655 | 56,627 | 76,613 | 83,275 | 283,135 | 383,065 | 1,302,421 | 1,415,675 | 1,915,325 | 6,512,105 | 32,560,525 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -23 | -25 | -85 | -115 | -391 | -425 | -575 | -1,955 | -3,331 | -9,775 | -16,655 | -56,627 | -76,613 | -83,275 | -283,135 | -383,065 | -1,302,421 | -1,415,675 | -1,915,325 | -6,512,105 | -32,560,525 |
