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 34,466,999, 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 | 34,466,999 | |
| -1 | -34,466,999 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 34,466,999.
Example:
1 x 34,466,999 = 34,466,999
and
-1 x -34,466,999 = 34,466,999
Notice both answers equal 34,466,999
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 34,466,999 and divide it by 2:
34,466,999 ÷ 2 = 17,233,499.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,233,499.5 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 | 34,466,999 | |
| -1 | -34,466,999 |
Now, we try dividing 34,466,999 by 3:
34,466,999 ÷ 3 = 11,488,999.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,488,999.6667 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 | 34,466,999 | |
| -1 | -34,466,999 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
34,466,999 ÷ 4 = 8,616,749.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,616,749.75 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 | 34,466,999 | |
| -1 | 34,466,999 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 109 | 199 | 227 | 763 | 1,393 | 1,589 | 21,691 | 24,743 | 45,173 | 151,837 | 173,201 | 316,211 | 4,923,857 | 34,466,999 |
| -1 | -7 | -109 | -199 | -227 | -763 | -1,393 | -1,589 | -21,691 | -24,743 | -45,173 | -151,837 | -173,201 | -316,211 | -4,923,857 | -34,466,999 |
