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 34,576,735, 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 | 34,576,735 | |
| -1 | -34,576,735 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 34,576,735.
Example:
1 x 34,576,735 = 34,576,735
and
-1 x -34,576,735 = 34,576,735
Notice both answers equal 34,576,735
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 34,576,735 and divide it by 2:
34,576,735 ÷ 2 = 17,288,367.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,288,367.5 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 | 34,576,735 | |
| -1 | -34,576,735 |
Now, we try dividing 34,576,735 by 3:
34,576,735 ÷ 3 = 11,525,578.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,525,578.3333 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 | 34,576,735 | |
| -1 | -34,576,735 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
34,576,735 ÷ 4 = 8,644,183.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,644,183.75 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 | 34,576,735 | |
| -1 | 34,576,735 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 41 | 151 | 205 | 755 | 1,117 | 5,585 | 6,191 | 30,955 | 45,797 | 168,667 | 228,985 | 843,335 | 6,915,347 | 34,576,735 |
| -1 | -5 | -41 | -151 | -205 | -755 | -1,117 | -5,585 | -6,191 | -30,955 | -45,797 | -168,667 | -228,985 | -843,335 | -6,915,347 | -34,576,735 |
