How do I find the factor combinations of the number 35,848,152?

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 35,848,152, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.

Outside in Factoring

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 35,848,152
-1 -35,848,152

Why are the negative numbers included?

When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,848,152.

Example:
1 x 35,848,152 = 35,848,152
and
-1 x -35,848,152 = 35,848,152
Notice both answers equal 35,848,152

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,848,152 and divide it by 2:

35,848,152 ÷ 2 = 17,924,076

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,924,076 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 17,924,076 35,848,152
-1 -2 -17,924,076 -35,848,152

Now, we try dividing 35,848,152 by 3:

35,848,152 ÷ 3 = 11,949,384

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,949,384 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 11,949,384 17,924,076 35,848,152
-1 -2 -3 -11,949,384 -17,924,076 -35,848,152

Let's try dividing by 4:

35,848,152 ÷ 4 = 8,962,038

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,962,038 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 4 8,962,038 11,949,384 17,924,076 35,848,152
-1 -2 -3 -4 -8,962,038 -11,949,384 -17,924,076 35,848,152
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
