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 35,445,223, 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 | 35,445,223 | |
| -1 | -35,445,223 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,445,223.
Example:
1 x 35,445,223 = 35,445,223
and
-1 x -35,445,223 = 35,445,223
Notice both answers equal 35,445,223
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,445,223 and divide it by 2:
35,445,223 ÷ 2 = 17,722,611.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,722,611.5 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 | 35,445,223 | |
| -1 | -35,445,223 |
Now, we try dividing 35,445,223 by 3:
35,445,223 ÷ 3 = 11,815,074.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,815,074.3333 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 | 35,445,223 | |
| -1 | -35,445,223 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,445,223 ÷ 4 = 8,861,305.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,861,305.75 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 | 35,445,223 | |
| -1 | 35,445,223 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 37 | 73 | 407 | 803 | 1,193 | 2,701 | 13,123 | 29,711 | 44,141 | 87,089 | 485,551 | 957,979 | 3,222,293 | 35,445,223 |
| -1 | -11 | -37 | -73 | -407 | -803 | -1,193 | -2,701 | -13,123 | -29,711 | -44,141 | -87,089 | -485,551 | -957,979 | -3,222,293 | -35,445,223 |
