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 34,747,535, 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 | 34,747,535 | |
| -1 | -34,747,535 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 34,747,535.
Example:
1 x 34,747,535 = 34,747,535
and
-1 x -34,747,535 = 34,747,535
Notice both answers equal 34,747,535
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 34,747,535 and divide it by 2:
34,747,535 ÷ 2 = 17,373,767.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,373,767.5 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 | 34,747,535 | |
| -1 | -34,747,535 |
Now, we try dividing 34,747,535 by 3:
34,747,535 ÷ 3 = 11,582,511.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,582,511.6667 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 | 34,747,535 | |
| -1 | -34,747,535 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
34,747,535 ÷ 4 = 8,686,883.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,686,883.75 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 | 34,747,535 | |
| -1 | 34,747,535 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 83 | 101 | 415 | 505 | 829 | 4,145 | 8,383 | 41,915 | 68,807 | 83,729 | 344,035 | 418,645 | 6,949,507 | 34,747,535 |
| -1 | -5 | -83 | -101 | -415 | -505 | -829 | -4,145 | -8,383 | -41,915 | -68,807 | -83,729 | -344,035 | -418,645 | -6,949,507 | -34,747,535 |
