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 36,013,375, 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 | 36,013,375 | |
| -1 | -36,013,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 36,013,375.
Example:
1 x 36,013,375 = 36,013,375
and
-1 x -36,013,375 = 36,013,375
Notice both answers equal 36,013,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 36,013,375 and divide it by 2:
36,013,375 ÷ 2 = 18,006,687.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,006,687.5 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 | 36,013,375 | |
| -1 | -36,013,375 |
Now, we try dividing 36,013,375 by 3:
36,013,375 ÷ 3 = 12,004,458.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,004,458.3333 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 | 36,013,375 | |
| -1 | -36,013,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
36,013,375 ÷ 4 = 9,003,343.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,003,343.75 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 | 36,013,375 | |
| -1 | 36,013,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 41 | 125 | 205 | 1,025 | 5,125 | 7,027 | 35,135 | 175,675 | 288,107 | 878,375 | 1,440,535 | 7,202,675 | 36,013,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -41 | -125 | -205 | -1,025 | -5,125 | -7,027 | -35,135 | -175,675 | -288,107 | -878,375 | -1,440,535 | -7,202,675 | -36,013,375 |
