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 35,374,115, 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 | 35,374,115 | |
| -1 | -35,374,115 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,374,115.
Example:
1 x 35,374,115 = 35,374,115
and
-1 x -35,374,115 = 35,374,115
Notice both answers equal 35,374,115
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,374,115 and divide it by 2:
35,374,115 ÷ 2 = 17,687,057.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,687,057.5 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 | 35,374,115 | |
| -1 | -35,374,115 |
Now, we try dividing 35,374,115 by 3:
35,374,115 ÷ 3 = 11,791,371.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,791,371.6667 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 | 35,374,115 | |
| -1 | -35,374,115 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,374,115 ÷ 4 = 8,843,528.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,843,528.75 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 | 35,374,115 | |
| -1 | 35,374,115 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 35 | 115 | 161 | 805 | 43,943 | 219,715 | 307,601 | 1,010,689 | 1,538,005 | 5,053,445 | 7,074,823 | 35,374,115 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -35 | -115 | -161 | -805 | -43,943 | -219,715 | -307,601 | -1,010,689 | -1,538,005 | -5,053,445 | -7,074,823 | -35,374,115 |
