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 35,004,641, 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 | 35,004,641 | |
| -1 | -35,004,641 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,004,641.
Example:
1 x 35,004,641 = 35,004,641
and
-1 x -35,004,641 = 35,004,641
Notice both answers equal 35,004,641
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,004,641 and divide it by 2:
35,004,641 ÷ 2 = 17,502,320.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,502,320.5 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 | 35,004,641 | |
| -1 | -35,004,641 |
Now, we try dividing 35,004,641 by 3:
35,004,641 ÷ 3 = 11,668,213.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,668,213.6667 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 | 35,004,641 | |
| -1 | -35,004,641 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,004,641 ÷ 4 = 8,751,160.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,751,160.25 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 | 35,004,641 | |
| -1 | 35,004,641 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 59 | 131 | 413 | 647 | 917 | 4,529 | 7,729 | 38,173 | 54,103 | 84,757 | 267,211 | 593,299 | 5,000,663 | 35,004,641 |
| -1 | -7 | -59 | -131 | -413 | -647 | -917 | -4,529 | -7,729 | -38,173 | -54,103 | -84,757 | -267,211 | -593,299 | -5,000,663 | -35,004,641 |
