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 35,359,337, 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 | 35,359,337 | |
| -1 | -35,359,337 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,359,337.
Example:
1 x 35,359,337 = 35,359,337
and
-1 x -35,359,337 = 35,359,337
Notice both answers equal 35,359,337
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,359,337 and divide it by 2:
35,359,337 ÷ 2 = 17,679,668.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,679,668.5 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 | 35,359,337 | |
| -1 | -35,359,337 |
Now, we try dividing 35,359,337 by 3:
35,359,337 ÷ 3 = 11,786,445.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,786,445.6667 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 | 35,359,337 | |
| -1 | -35,359,337 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,359,337 ÷ 4 = 8,839,834.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,839,834.25 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 | 35,359,337 | |
| -1 | 35,359,337 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 17 | 193 | 221 | 829 | 2,509 | 3,281 | 10,777 | 14,093 | 42,653 | 159,997 | 183,209 | 2,079,961 | 2,719,949 | 35,359,337 |
| -1 | -13 | -17 | -193 | -221 | -829 | -2,509 | -3,281 | -10,777 | -14,093 | -42,653 | -159,997 | -183,209 | -2,079,961 | -2,719,949 | -35,359,337 |
