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 36,563,267, 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 | 36,563,267 | |
| -1 | -36,563,267 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 36,563,267.
Example:
1 x 36,563,267 = 36,563,267
and
-1 x -36,563,267 = 36,563,267
Notice both answers equal 36,563,267
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 36,563,267 and divide it by 2:
36,563,267 ÷ 2 = 18,281,633.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,281,633.5 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 | 36,563,267 | |
| -1 | -36,563,267 |
Now, we try dividing 36,563,267 by 3:
36,563,267 ÷ 3 = 12,187,755.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,187,755.6667 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 | 36,563,267 | |
| -1 | -36,563,267 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
36,563,267 ÷ 4 = 9,140,816.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,140,816.75 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 | 36,563,267 | |
| -1 | 36,563,267 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 41 | 181 | 379 | 533 | 2,353 | 4,927 | 7,421 | 15,539 | 68,599 | 96,473 | 202,007 | 891,787 | 2,812,559 | 36,563,267 |
| -1 | -13 | -41 | -181 | -379 | -533 | -2,353 | -4,927 | -7,421 | -15,539 | -68,599 | -96,473 | -202,007 | -891,787 | -2,812,559 | -36,563,267 |
