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 33,301,547, 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 | 33,301,547 | |
| -1 | -33,301,547 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 33,301,547.
Example:
1 x 33,301,547 = 33,301,547
and
-1 x -33,301,547 = 33,301,547
Notice both answers equal 33,301,547
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 33,301,547 and divide it by 2:
33,301,547 ÷ 2 = 16,650,773.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,650,773.5 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 | 33,301,547 | |
| -1 | -33,301,547 |
Now, we try dividing 33,301,547 by 3:
33,301,547 ÷ 3 = 11,100,515.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,100,515.6667 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 | 33,301,547 | |
| -1 | -33,301,547 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
33,301,547 ÷ 4 = 8,325,386.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,325,386.75 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 | 33,301,547 | |
| -1 | 33,301,547 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 59 | 61 | 487 | 1,121 | 1,159 | 3,599 | 9,253 | 28,733 | 29,707 | 68,381 | 545,927 | 564,433 | 1,752,713 | 33,301,547 |
| -1 | -19 | -59 | -61 | -487 | -1,121 | -1,159 | -3,599 | -9,253 | -28,733 | -29,707 | -68,381 | -545,927 | -564,433 | -1,752,713 | -33,301,547 |
