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 41,375,033, 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 | 41,375,033 | |
| -1 | -41,375,033 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 41,375,033.
Example:
1 x 41,375,033 = 41,375,033
and
-1 x -41,375,033 = 41,375,033
Notice both answers equal 41,375,033
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 41,375,033 and divide it by 2:
41,375,033 ÷ 2 = 20,687,516.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 20,687,516.5 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 | 41,375,033 | |
| -1 | -41,375,033 |
Now, we try dividing 41,375,033 by 3:
41,375,033 ÷ 3 = 13,791,677.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 13,791,677.6667 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 | 41,375,033 | |
| -1 | -41,375,033 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
41,375,033 ÷ 4 = 10,343,758.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,343,758.25 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 | 41,375,033 | |
| -1 | 41,375,033 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 53 | 229 | 371 | 487 | 1,603 | 3,409 | 12,137 | 25,811 | 84,959 | 111,523 | 180,677 | 780,661 | 5,910,719 | 41,375,033 |
| -1 | -7 | -53 | -229 | -371 | -487 | -1,603 | -3,409 | -12,137 | -25,811 | -84,959 | -111,523 | -180,677 | -780,661 | -5,910,719 | -41,375,033 |
