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 34,710,071, 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 | 34,710,071 | |
| -1 | -34,710,071 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 34,710,071.
Example:
1 x 34,710,071 = 34,710,071
and
-1 x -34,710,071 = 34,710,071
Notice both answers equal 34,710,071
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 34,710,071 and divide it by 2:
34,710,071 ÷ 2 = 17,355,035.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,355,035.5 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 | 34,710,071 | |
| -1 | -34,710,071 |
Now, we try dividing 34,710,071 by 3:
34,710,071 ÷ 3 = 11,570,023.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,570,023.6667 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 | 34,710,071 | |
| -1 | -34,710,071 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
34,710,071 ÷ 4 = 8,677,517.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,677,517.75 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 | 34,710,071 | |
| -1 | 34,710,071 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 29 | 53 | 319 | 583 | 1,537 | 2,053 | 16,907 | 22,583 | 59,537 | 108,809 | 654,907 | 1,196,899 | 3,155,461 | 34,710,071 |
| -1 | -11 | -29 | -53 | -319 | -583 | -1,537 | -2,053 | -16,907 | -22,583 | -59,537 | -108,809 | -654,907 | -1,196,899 | -3,155,461 | -34,710,071 |
