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 37,033,337, 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 | 37,033,337 | |
| -1 | -37,033,337 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 37,033,337.
Example:
1 x 37,033,337 = 37,033,337
and
-1 x -37,033,337 = 37,033,337
Notice both answers equal 37,033,337
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 37,033,337 and divide it by 2:
37,033,337 ÷ 2 = 18,516,668.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,516,668.5 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 | 37,033,337 | |
| -1 | -37,033,337 |
Now, we try dividing 37,033,337 by 3:
37,033,337 ÷ 3 = 12,344,445.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,344,445.6667 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 | 37,033,337 | |
| -1 | -37,033,337 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
37,033,337 ÷ 4 = 9,258,334.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,258,334.25 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 | 37,033,337 | |
| -1 | 37,033,337 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 19 | 37 | 209 | 407 | 703 | 4,789 | 7,733 | 52,679 | 90,991 | 177,193 | 1,000,901 | 1,949,123 | 3,366,667 | 37,033,337 |
| -1 | -11 | -19 | -37 | -209 | -407 | -703 | -4,789 | -7,733 | -52,679 | -90,991 | -177,193 | -1,000,901 | -1,949,123 | -3,366,667 | -37,033,337 |
