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 34,109,635, 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 | 34,109,635 | |
| -1 | -34,109,635 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 34,109,635.
Example:
1 x 34,109,635 = 34,109,635
and
-1 x -34,109,635 = 34,109,635
Notice both answers equal 34,109,635
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 34,109,635 and divide it by 2:
34,109,635 ÷ 2 = 17,054,817.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,054,817.5 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 | 34,109,635 | |
| -1 | -34,109,635 |
Now, we try dividing 34,109,635 by 3:
34,109,635 ÷ 3 = 11,369,878.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,369,878.3333 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 | 34,109,635 | |
| -1 | -34,109,635 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
34,109,635 ÷ 4 = 8,527,408.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,527,408.75 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 | 34,109,635 | |
| -1 | 34,109,635 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 49 | 245 | 343 | 1,715 | 19,889 | 99,445 | 139,223 | 696,115 | 974,561 | 4,872,805 | 6,821,927 | 34,109,635 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -49 | -245 | -343 | -1,715 | -19,889 | -99,445 | -139,223 | -696,115 | -974,561 | -4,872,805 | -6,821,927 | -34,109,635 |
