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 37,471,819, 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 | 37,471,819 | |
| -1 | -37,471,819 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 37,471,819.
Example:
1 x 37,471,819 = 37,471,819
and
-1 x -37,471,819 = 37,471,819
Notice both answers equal 37,471,819
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 37,471,819 and divide it by 2:
37,471,819 ÷ 2 = 18,735,909.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,735,909.5 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 | 37,471,819 | |
| -1 | -37,471,819 |
Now, we try dividing 37,471,819 by 3:
37,471,819 ÷ 3 = 12,490,606.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,490,606.3333 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 | 37,471,819 | |
| -1 | -37,471,819 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
37,471,819 ÷ 4 = 9,367,954.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,367,954.75 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 | 37,471,819 | |
| -1 | 37,471,819 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 19 | 49 | 77 | 133 | 209 | 539 | 931 | 1,463 | 3,659 | 10,241 | 25,613 | 40,249 | 69,521 | 179,291 | 281,743 | 486,647 | 764,731 | 1,972,201 | 3,406,529 | 5,353,117 | 37,471,819 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -19 | -49 | -77 | -133 | -209 | -539 | -931 | -1,463 | -3,659 | -10,241 | -25,613 | -40,249 | -69,521 | -179,291 | -281,743 | -486,647 | -764,731 | -1,972,201 | -3,406,529 | -5,353,117 | -37,471,819 |
