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 35,235,515, 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 | 35,235,515 | |
| -1 | -35,235,515 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,235,515.
Example:
1 x 35,235,515 = 35,235,515
and
-1 x -35,235,515 = 35,235,515
Notice both answers equal 35,235,515
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,235,515 and divide it by 2:
35,235,515 ÷ 2 = 17,617,757.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,617,757.5 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 | 35,235,515 | |
| -1 | -35,235,515 |
Now, we try dividing 35,235,515 by 3:
35,235,515 ÷ 3 = 11,745,171.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,745,171.6667 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 | 35,235,515 | |
| -1 | -35,235,515 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,235,515 ÷ 4 = 8,808,878.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,808,878.75 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 | 35,235,515 | |
| -1 | 35,235,515 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 127 | 635 | 889 | 4,445 | 7,927 | 39,635 | 55,489 | 277,445 | 1,006,729 | 5,033,645 | 7,047,103 | 35,235,515 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -127 | -635 | -889 | -4,445 | -7,927 | -39,635 | -55,489 | -277,445 | -1,006,729 | -5,033,645 | -7,047,103 | -35,235,515 |
