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 32,625,005, 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 | 32,625,005 | |
| -1 | -32,625,005 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 32,625,005.
Example:
1 x 32,625,005 = 32,625,005
and
-1 x -32,625,005 = 32,625,005
Notice both answers equal 32,625,005
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 32,625,005 and divide it by 2:
32,625,005 ÷ 2 = 16,312,502.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,312,502.5 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 | 32,625,005 | |
| -1 | -32,625,005 |
Now, we try dividing 32,625,005 by 3:
32,625,005 ÷ 3 = 10,875,001.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 10,875,001.6667 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 | 32,625,005 | |
| -1 | -32,625,005 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
32,625,005 ÷ 4 = 8,156,251.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,156,251.25 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 | 32,625,005 | |
| -1 | 32,625,005 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 541 | 1,723 | 2,705 | 3,787 | 8,615 | 12,061 | 18,935 | 60,305 | 932,143 | 4,660,715 | 6,525,001 | 32,625,005 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -541 | -1,723 | -2,705 | -3,787 | -8,615 | -12,061 | -18,935 | -60,305 | -932,143 | -4,660,715 | -6,525,001 | -32,625,005 |
