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 33,762,875, 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 | 33,762,875 | |
| -1 | -33,762,875 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 33,762,875.
Example:
1 x 33,762,875 = 33,762,875
and
-1 x -33,762,875 = 33,762,875
Notice both answers equal 33,762,875
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 33,762,875 and divide it by 2:
33,762,875 ÷ 2 = 16,881,437.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,881,437.5 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 | 33,762,875 | |
| -1 | -33,762,875 |
Now, we try dividing 33,762,875 by 3:
33,762,875 ÷ 3 = 11,254,291.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,254,291.6667 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 | 33,762,875 | |
| -1 | -33,762,875 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
33,762,875 ÷ 4 = 8,440,718.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,440,718.75 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 | 33,762,875 | |
| -1 | 33,762,875 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 31 | 125 | 155 | 775 | 3,875 | 8,713 | 43,565 | 217,825 | 270,103 | 1,089,125 | 1,350,515 | 6,752,575 | 33,762,875 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -31 | -125 | -155 | -775 | -3,875 | -8,713 | -43,565 | -217,825 | -270,103 | -1,089,125 | -1,350,515 | -6,752,575 | -33,762,875 |
