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 35,074,151, 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 | 35,074,151 | |
| -1 | -35,074,151 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,074,151.
Example:
1 x 35,074,151 = 35,074,151
and
-1 x -35,074,151 = 35,074,151
Notice both answers equal 35,074,151
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,074,151 and divide it by 2:
35,074,151 ÷ 2 = 17,537,075.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,537,075.5 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 | 35,074,151 | |
| -1 | -35,074,151 |
Now, we try dividing 35,074,151 by 3:
35,074,151 ÷ 3 = 11,691,383.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,691,383.6667 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 | 35,074,151 | |
| -1 | -35,074,151 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,074,151 ÷ 4 = 8,768,537.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,768,537.75 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 | 35,074,151 | |
| -1 | 35,074,151 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 49 | 293 | 343 | 349 | 2,051 | 2,443 | 14,357 | 17,101 | 100,499 | 102,257 | 119,707 | 715,799 | 5,010,593 | 35,074,151 |
| -1 | -7 | -49 | -293 | -343 | -349 | -2,051 | -2,443 | -14,357 | -17,101 | -100,499 | -102,257 | -119,707 | -715,799 | -5,010,593 | -35,074,151 |
