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 37,367,407, 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 | 37,367,407 | |
| -1 | -37,367,407 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 37,367,407.
Example:
1 x 37,367,407 = 37,367,407
and
-1 x -37,367,407 = 37,367,407
Notice both answers equal 37,367,407
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 37,367,407 and divide it by 2:
37,367,407 ÷ 2 = 18,683,703.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,683,703.5 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 | 37,367,407 | |
| -1 | -37,367,407 |
Now, we try dividing 37,367,407 by 3:
37,367,407 ÷ 3 = 12,455,802.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,455,802.3333 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 | 37,367,407 | |
| -1 | -37,367,407 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
37,367,407 ÷ 4 = 9,341,851.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,341,851.75 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 | 37,367,407 | |
| -1 | 37,367,407 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 77 | 97 | 679 | 1,067 | 5,003 | 7,469 | 35,021 | 55,033 | 385,231 | 485,291 | 3,397,037 | 5,338,201 | 37,367,407 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -77 | -97 | -679 | -1,067 | -5,003 | -7,469 | -35,021 | -55,033 | -385,231 | -485,291 | -3,397,037 | -5,338,201 | -37,367,407 |
