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 34,715,069, 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 | 34,715,069 | |
| -1 | -34,715,069 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 34,715,069.
Example:
1 x 34,715,069 = 34,715,069
and
-1 x -34,715,069 = 34,715,069
Notice both answers equal 34,715,069
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 34,715,069 and divide it by 2:
34,715,069 ÷ 2 = 17,357,534.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,357,534.5 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 | 34,715,069 | |
| -1 | -34,715,069 |
Now, we try dividing 34,715,069 by 3:
34,715,069 ÷ 3 = 11,571,689.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,571,689.6667 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 | 34,715,069 | |
| -1 | -34,715,069 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
34,715,069 ÷ 4 = 8,678,767.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,678,767.25 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 | 34,715,069 | |
| -1 | 34,715,069 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 41 | 59 | 113 | 127 | 2,419 | 4,633 | 5,207 | 6,667 | 7,493 | 14,351 | 273,347 | 307,213 | 588,391 | 846,709 | 34,715,069 |
| -1 | -41 | -59 | -113 | -127 | -2,419 | -4,633 | -5,207 | -6,667 | -7,493 | -14,351 | -273,347 | -307,213 | -588,391 | -846,709 | -34,715,069 |
