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 70,760,765, 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 | 70,760,765 | |
| -1 | -70,760,765 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 70,760,765.
Example:
1 x 70,760,765 = 70,760,765
and
-1 x -70,760,765 = 70,760,765
Notice both answers equal 70,760,765
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 70,760,765 and divide it by 2:
70,760,765 ÷ 2 = 35,380,382.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 35,380,382.5 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 | 70,760,765 | |
| -1 | -70,760,765 |
Now, we try dividing 70,760,765 by 3:
70,760,765 ÷ 3 = 23,586,921.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 23,586,921.6667 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 | 70,760,765 | |
| -1 | -70,760,765 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
70,760,765 ÷ 4 = 17,690,191.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 17,690,191.25 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 | 70,760,765 | |
| -1 | 70,760,765 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 59 | 115 | 295 | 1,357 | 6,785 | 10,429 | 52,145 | 239,867 | 615,311 | 1,199,335 | 3,076,555 | 14,152,153 | 70,760,765 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -59 | -115 | -295 | -1,357 | -6,785 | -10,429 | -52,145 | -239,867 | -615,311 | -1,199,335 | -3,076,555 | -14,152,153 | -70,760,765 |
