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 35,963,395, 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 | 35,963,395 | |
| -1 | -35,963,395 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 35,963,395.
Example:
1 x 35,963,395 = 35,963,395
and
-1 x -35,963,395 = 35,963,395
Notice both answers equal 35,963,395
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 35,963,395 and divide it by 2:
35,963,395 ÷ 2 = 17,981,697.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 17,981,697.5 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 | 35,963,395 | |
| -1 | -35,963,395 |
Now, we try dividing 35,963,395 by 3:
35,963,395 ÷ 3 = 11,987,798.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,987,798.3333 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 | 35,963,395 | |
| -1 | -35,963,395 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
35,963,395 ÷ 4 = 8,990,848.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,990,848.75 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 | 35,963,395 | |
| -1 | 35,963,395 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 509 | 1,087 | 2,545 | 5,435 | 6,617 | 14,131 | 33,085 | 70,655 | 553,283 | 2,766,415 | 7,192,679 | 35,963,395 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -509 | -1,087 | -2,545 | -5,435 | -6,617 | -14,131 | -33,085 | -70,655 | -553,283 | -2,766,415 | -7,192,679 | -35,963,395 |
