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 37,111,295, 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 | 37,111,295 | |
| -1 | -37,111,295 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 37,111,295.
Example:
1 x 37,111,295 = 37,111,295
and
-1 x -37,111,295 = 37,111,295
Notice both answers equal 37,111,295
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 37,111,295 and divide it by 2:
37,111,295 ÷ 2 = 18,555,647.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,555,647.5 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 | 37,111,295 | |
| -1 | -37,111,295 |
Now, we try dividing 37,111,295 by 3:
37,111,295 ÷ 3 = 12,370,431.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,370,431.6667 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 | 37,111,295 | |
| -1 | -37,111,295 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
37,111,295 ÷ 4 = 9,277,823.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,277,823.75 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 | 37,111,295 | |
| -1 | 37,111,295 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 59 | 65 | 295 | 767 | 3,835 | 9,677 | 48,385 | 125,801 | 570,943 | 629,005 | 2,854,715 | 7,422,259 | 37,111,295 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -59 | -65 | -295 | -767 | -3,835 | -9,677 | -48,385 | -125,801 | -570,943 | -629,005 | -2,854,715 | -7,422,259 | -37,111,295 |
