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 33,537,035, 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 | 33,537,035 | |
| -1 | -33,537,035 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 33,537,035.
Example:
1 x 33,537,035 = 33,537,035
and
-1 x -33,537,035 = 33,537,035
Notice both answers equal 33,537,035
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 33,537,035 and divide it by 2:
33,537,035 ÷ 2 = 16,768,517.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,768,517.5 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 | 33,537,035 | |
| -1 | -33,537,035 |
Now, we try dividing 33,537,035 by 3:
33,537,035 ÷ 3 = 11,179,011.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,179,011.6667 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 | 33,537,035 | |
| -1 | -33,537,035 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
33,537,035 ÷ 4 = 8,384,258.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,384,258.75 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 | 33,537,035 | |
| -1 | 33,537,035 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 617 | 1,553 | 3,085 | 4,319 | 7,765 | 10,871 | 21,595 | 54,355 | 958,201 | 4,791,005 | 6,707,407 | 33,537,035 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -617 | -1,553 | -3,085 | -4,319 | -7,765 | -10,871 | -21,595 | -54,355 | -958,201 | -4,791,005 | -6,707,407 | -33,537,035 |
