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 36,745,225, 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 | 36,745,225 | |
| -1 | -36,745,225 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 36,745,225.
Example:
1 x 36,745,225 = 36,745,225
and
-1 x -36,745,225 = 36,745,225
Notice both answers equal 36,745,225
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 36,745,225 and divide it by 2:
36,745,225 ÷ 2 = 18,372,612.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,372,612.5 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 | 36,745,225 | |
| -1 | -36,745,225 |
Now, we try dividing 36,745,225 by 3:
36,745,225 ÷ 3 = 12,248,408.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,248,408.3333 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 | 36,745,225 | |
| -1 | -36,745,225 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
36,745,225 ÷ 4 = 9,186,306.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,186,306.25 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 | 36,745,225 | |
| -1 | 36,745,225 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 41 | 55 | 205 | 275 | 451 | 1,025 | 2,255 | 3,259 | 11,275 | 16,295 | 35,849 | 81,475 | 133,619 | 179,245 | 668,095 | 896,225 | 1,469,809 | 3,340,475 | 7,349,045 | 36,745,225 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -41 | -55 | -205 | -275 | -451 | -1,025 | -2,255 | -3,259 | -11,275 | -16,295 | -35,849 | -81,475 | -133,619 | -179,245 | -668,095 | -896,225 | -1,469,809 | -3,340,475 | -7,349,045 | -36,745,225 |
