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 36,206,275, 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 | 36,206,275 | |
| -1 | -36,206,275 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 36,206,275.
Example:
1 x 36,206,275 = 36,206,275
and
-1 x -36,206,275 = 36,206,275
Notice both answers equal 36,206,275
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 36,206,275 and divide it by 2:
36,206,275 ÷ 2 = 18,103,137.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,103,137.5 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 | 36,206,275 | |
| -1 | -36,206,275 |
Now, we try dividing 36,206,275 by 3:
36,206,275 ÷ 3 = 12,068,758.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,068,758.3333 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 | 36,206,275 | |
| -1 | -36,206,275 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
36,206,275 ÷ 4 = 9,051,568.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,051,568.75 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 | 36,206,275 | |
| -1 | 36,206,275 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 175 | 313 | 661 | 1,565 | 2,191 | 3,305 | 4,627 | 7,825 | 10,955 | 16,525 | 23,135 | 54,775 | 115,675 | 206,893 | 1,034,465 | 1,448,251 | 5,172,325 | 7,241,255 | 36,206,275 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -175 | -313 | -661 | -1,565 | -2,191 | -3,305 | -4,627 | -7,825 | -10,955 | -16,525 | -23,135 | -54,775 | -115,675 | -206,893 | -1,034,465 | -1,448,251 | -5,172,325 | -7,241,255 | -36,206,275 |
