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 34,322,189, 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 | 34,322,189 | |
| -1 | -34,322,189 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 34,322,189.
Example:
1 x 34,322,189 = 34,322,189
and
-1 x -34,322,189 = 34,322,189
Notice both answers equal 34,322,189
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 34,322,189 and divide it by 2:
34,322,189 ÷ 2 = 17,161,094.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,161,094.5 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 | 34,322,189 | |
| -1 | -34,322,189 |
Now, we try dividing 34,322,189 by 3:
34,322,189 ÷ 3 = 11,440,729.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,440,729.6667 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 | 34,322,189 | |
| -1 | -34,322,189 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
34,322,189 ÷ 4 = 8,580,547.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,580,547.25 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 | 34,322,189 | |
| -1 | 34,322,189 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 19 | 97 | 209 | 1,067 | 1,693 | 1,843 | 18,623 | 20,273 | 32,167 | 164,221 | 353,837 | 1,806,431 | 3,120,199 | 34,322,189 |
| -1 | -11 | -19 | -97 | -209 | -1,067 | -1,693 | -1,843 | -18,623 | -20,273 | -32,167 | -164,221 | -353,837 | -1,806,431 | -3,120,199 | -34,322,189 |
