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 35,531,125, 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 | 35,531,125 | |
| -1 | -35,531,125 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,531,125.
Example:
1 x 35,531,125 = 35,531,125
and
-1 x -35,531,125 = 35,531,125
Notice both answers equal 35,531,125
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,531,125 and divide it by 2:
35,531,125 ÷ 2 = 17,765,562.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,765,562.5 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 | 35,531,125 | |
| -1 | -35,531,125 |
Now, we try dividing 35,531,125 by 3:
35,531,125 ÷ 3 = 11,843,708.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,843,708.3333 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 | 35,531,125 | |
| -1 | -35,531,125 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,531,125 ÷ 4 = 8,882,781.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,882,781.25 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 | 35,531,125 | |
| -1 | 35,531,125 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 49 | 125 | 175 | 245 | 875 | 1,225 | 5,801 | 6,125 | 29,005 | 40,607 | 145,025 | 203,035 | 284,249 | 725,125 | 1,015,175 | 1,421,245 | 5,075,875 | 7,106,225 | 35,531,125 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -49 | -125 | -175 | -245 | -875 | -1,225 | -5,801 | -6,125 | -29,005 | -40,607 | -145,025 | -203,035 | -284,249 | -725,125 | -1,015,175 | -1,421,245 | -5,075,875 | -7,106,225 | -35,531,125 |
