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 35,632,295, 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 | 35,632,295 | |
| -1 | -35,632,295 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,632,295.
Example:
1 x 35,632,295 = 35,632,295
and
-1 x -35,632,295 = 35,632,295
Notice both answers equal 35,632,295
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,632,295 and divide it by 2:
35,632,295 ÷ 2 = 17,816,147.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,816,147.5 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 | 35,632,295 | |
| -1 | -35,632,295 |
Now, we try dividing 35,632,295 by 3:
35,632,295 ÷ 3 = 11,877,431.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,877,431.6667 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 | 35,632,295 | |
| -1 | -35,632,295 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,632,295 ÷ 4 = 8,908,073.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,908,073.75 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 | 35,632,295 | |
| -1 | 35,632,295 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 37 | 101 | 185 | 505 | 1,907 | 3,737 | 9,535 | 18,685 | 70,559 | 192,607 | 352,795 | 963,035 | 7,126,459 | 35,632,295 |
| -1 | -5 | -37 | -101 | -185 | -505 | -1,907 | -3,737 | -9,535 | -18,685 | -70,559 | -192,607 | -352,795 | -963,035 | -7,126,459 | -35,632,295 |
