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 35,801,773, 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 | 35,801,773 | |
| -1 | -35,801,773 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,801,773.
Example:
1 x 35,801,773 = 35,801,773
and
-1 x -35,801,773 = 35,801,773
Notice both answers equal 35,801,773
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,801,773 and divide it by 2:
35,801,773 ÷ 2 = 17,900,886.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,900,886.5 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 | 35,801,773 | |
| -1 | -35,801,773 |
Now, we try dividing 35,801,773 by 3:
35,801,773 ÷ 3 = 11,933,924.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,933,924.3333 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 | 35,801,773 | |
| -1 | -35,801,773 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,801,773 ÷ 4 = 8,950,443.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,950,443.25 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 | 35,801,773 | |
| -1 | 35,801,773 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 79 | 101 | 553 | 641 | 707 | 4,487 | 7,979 | 50,639 | 55,853 | 64,741 | 354,473 | 453,187 | 5,114,539 | 35,801,773 |
| -1 | -7 | -79 | -101 | -553 | -641 | -707 | -4,487 | -7,979 | -50,639 | -55,853 | -64,741 | -354,473 | -453,187 | -5,114,539 | -35,801,773 |
