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 32,660,641, 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 | 32,660,641 | |
| -1 | -32,660,641 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 32,660,641.
Example:
1 x 32,660,641 = 32,660,641
and
-1 x -32,660,641 = 32,660,641
Notice both answers equal 32,660,641
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 32,660,641 and divide it by 2:
32,660,641 ÷ 2 = 16,330,320.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,330,320.5 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 | 32,660,641 | |
| -1 | -32,660,641 |
Now, we try dividing 32,660,641 by 3:
32,660,641 ÷ 3 = 10,886,880.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 10,886,880.3333 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 | 32,660,641 | |
| -1 | -32,660,641 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
32,660,641 ÷ 4 = 8,165,160.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,165,160.25 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 | 32,660,641 | |
| -1 | 32,660,641 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 29 | 41 | 377 | 533 | 1,189 | 2,113 | 15,457 | 27,469 | 61,277 | 86,633 | 796,601 | 1,126,229 | 2,512,357 | 32,660,641 |
| -1 | -13 | -29 | -41 | -377 | -533 | -1,189 | -2,113 | -15,457 | -27,469 | -61,277 | -86,633 | -796,601 | -1,126,229 | -2,512,357 | -32,660,641 |
