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 33,584,525, 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 | 33,584,525 | |
| -1 | -33,584,525 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 33,584,525.
Example:
1 x 33,584,525 = 33,584,525
and
-1 x -33,584,525 = 33,584,525
Notice both answers equal 33,584,525
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 33,584,525 and divide it by 2:
33,584,525 ÷ 2 = 16,792,262.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,792,262.5 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 | 33,584,525 | |
| -1 | -33,584,525 |
Now, we try dividing 33,584,525 by 3:
33,584,525 ÷ 3 = 11,194,841.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,194,841.6667 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 | 33,584,525 | |
| -1 | -33,584,525 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
33,584,525 ÷ 4 = 8,396,131.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,396,131.25 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 | 33,584,525 | |
| -1 | 33,584,525 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 25 | 65 | 169 | 325 | 845 | 4,225 | 7,949 | 39,745 | 103,337 | 198,725 | 516,685 | 1,343,381 | 2,583,425 | 6,716,905 | 33,584,525 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -25 | -65 | -169 | -325 | -845 | -4,225 | -7,949 | -39,745 | -103,337 | -198,725 | -516,685 | -1,343,381 | -2,583,425 | -6,716,905 | -33,584,525 |
