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 33,159,425, 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 | 33,159,425 | |
| -1 | -33,159,425 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 33,159,425.
Example:
1 x 33,159,425 = 33,159,425
and
-1 x -33,159,425 = 33,159,425
Notice both answers equal 33,159,425
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 33,159,425 and divide it by 2:
33,159,425 ÷ 2 = 16,579,712.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,579,712.5 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 | 33,159,425 | |
| -1 | -33,159,425 |
Now, we try dividing 33,159,425 by 3:
33,159,425 ÷ 3 = 11,053,141.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,053,141.6667 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 | 33,159,425 | |
| -1 | -33,159,425 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
33,159,425 ÷ 4 = 8,289,856.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,289,856.25 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 | 33,159,425 | |
| -1 | 33,159,425 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 25 | 65 | 257 | 325 | 397 | 1,285 | 1,985 | 3,341 | 5,161 | 6,425 | 9,925 | 16,705 | 25,805 | 83,525 | 102,029 | 129,025 | 510,145 | 1,326,377 | 2,550,725 | 6,631,885 | 33,159,425 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -25 | -65 | -257 | -325 | -397 | -1,285 | -1,985 | -3,341 | -5,161 | -6,425 | -9,925 | -16,705 | -25,805 | -83,525 | -102,029 | -129,025 | -510,145 | -1,326,377 | -2,550,725 | -6,631,885 | -33,159,425 |
