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 33,896,057, 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 | 33,896,057 | |
| -1 | -33,896,057 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 33,896,057.
Example:
1 x 33,896,057 = 33,896,057
and
-1 x -33,896,057 = 33,896,057
Notice both answers equal 33,896,057
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 33,896,057 and divide it by 2:
33,896,057 ÷ 2 = 16,948,028.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,948,028.5 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 | 33,896,057 | |
| -1 | -33,896,057 |
Now, we try dividing 33,896,057 by 3:
33,896,057 ÷ 3 = 11,298,685.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,298,685.6667 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 | 33,896,057 | |
| -1 | -33,896,057 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
33,896,057 ÷ 4 = 8,474,014.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,474,014.25 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 | 33,896,057 | |
| -1 | 33,896,057 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 19 | 109 | 247 | 1,259 | 1,417 | 2,071 | 16,367 | 23,921 | 26,923 | 137,231 | 310,973 | 1,784,003 | 2,607,389 | 33,896,057 |
| -1 | -13 | -19 | -109 | -247 | -1,259 | -1,417 | -2,071 | -16,367 | -23,921 | -26,923 | -137,231 | -310,973 | -1,784,003 | -2,607,389 | -33,896,057 |
