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 34,365,265, 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 | 34,365,265 | |
| -1 | -34,365,265 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 34,365,265.
Example:
1 x 34,365,265 = 34,365,265
and
-1 x -34,365,265 = 34,365,265
Notice both answers equal 34,365,265
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 34,365,265 and divide it by 2:
34,365,265 ÷ 2 = 17,182,632.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,182,632.5 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 | 34,365,265 | |
| -1 | -34,365,265 |
Now, we try dividing 34,365,265 by 3:
34,365,265 ÷ 3 = 11,455,088.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,455,088.3333 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 | 34,365,265 | |
| -1 | -34,365,265 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
34,365,265 ÷ 4 = 8,591,316.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,591,316.25 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 | 34,365,265 | |
| -1 | 34,365,265 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 61 | 305 | 671 | 3,355 | 10,243 | 51,215 | 112,673 | 563,365 | 624,823 | 3,124,115 | 6,873,053 | 34,365,265 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -61 | -305 | -671 | -3,355 | -10,243 | -51,215 | -112,673 | -563,365 | -624,823 | -3,124,115 | -6,873,053 | -34,365,265 |
