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 35,646,415, 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 | 35,646,415 | |
| -1 | -35,646,415 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,646,415.
Example:
1 x 35,646,415 = 35,646,415
and
-1 x -35,646,415 = 35,646,415
Notice both answers equal 35,646,415
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,646,415 and divide it by 2:
35,646,415 ÷ 2 = 17,823,207.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,823,207.5 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 | 35,646,415 | |
| -1 | -35,646,415 |
Now, we try dividing 35,646,415 by 3:
35,646,415 ÷ 3 = 11,882,138.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,882,138.3333 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 | 35,646,415 | |
| -1 | -35,646,415 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,646,415 ÷ 4 = 8,911,603.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,911,603.75 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 | 35,646,415 | |
| -1 | 35,646,415 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 113 | 565 | 791 | 3,955 | 9,013 | 45,065 | 63,091 | 315,455 | 1,018,469 | 5,092,345 | 7,129,283 | 35,646,415 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -113 | -565 | -791 | -3,955 | -9,013 | -45,065 | -63,091 | -315,455 | -1,018,469 | -5,092,345 | -7,129,283 | -35,646,415 |
