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 70,484,435, 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 | 70,484,435 | |
| -1 | -70,484,435 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 70,484,435.
Example:
1 x 70,484,435 = 70,484,435
and
-1 x -70,484,435 = 70,484,435
Notice both answers equal 70,484,435
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 70,484,435 and divide it by 2:
70,484,435 ÷ 2 = 35,242,217.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 35,242,217.5 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 | 70,484,435 | |
| -1 | -70,484,435 |
Now, we try dividing 70,484,435 by 3:
70,484,435 ÷ 3 = 23,494,811.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 23,494,811.6667 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 | 70,484,435 | |
| -1 | -70,484,435 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
70,484,435 ÷ 4 = 17,621,108.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 17,621,108.75 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 | 70,484,435 | |
| -1 | 70,484,435 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 53 | 265 | 371 | 1,855 | 37,997 | 189,985 | 265,979 | 1,329,895 | 2,013,841 | 10,069,205 | 14,096,887 | 70,484,435 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -53 | -265 | -371 | -1,855 | -37,997 | -189,985 | -265,979 | -1,329,895 | -2,013,841 | -10,069,205 | -14,096,887 | -70,484,435 |
