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 35,451,445, 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 | 35,451,445 | |
| -1 | -35,451,445 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,451,445.
Example:
1 x 35,451,445 = 35,451,445
and
-1 x -35,451,445 = 35,451,445
Notice both answers equal 35,451,445
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,451,445 and divide it by 2:
35,451,445 ÷ 2 = 17,725,722.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,725,722.5 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 | 35,451,445 | |
| -1 | -35,451,445 |
Now, we try dividing 35,451,445 by 3:
35,451,445 ÷ 3 = 11,817,148.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,817,148.3333 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 | 35,451,445 | |
| -1 | -35,451,445 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,451,445 ÷ 4 = 8,862,861.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,862,861.25 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 | 35,451,445 | |
| -1 | 35,451,445 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 31 | 155 | 439 | 521 | 2,195 | 2,605 | 13,609 | 16,151 | 68,045 | 80,755 | 228,719 | 1,143,595 | 7,090,289 | 35,451,445 |
| -1 | -5 | -31 | -155 | -439 | -521 | -2,195 | -2,605 | -13,609 | -16,151 | -68,045 | -80,755 | -228,719 | -1,143,595 | -7,090,289 | -35,451,445 |
