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 33,110,231, 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 | 33,110,231 | |
| -1 | -33,110,231 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 33,110,231.
Example:
1 x 33,110,231 = 33,110,231
and
-1 x -33,110,231 = 33,110,231
Notice both answers equal 33,110,231
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 33,110,231 and divide it by 2:
33,110,231 ÷ 2 = 16,555,115.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,555,115.5 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 | 33,110,231 | |
| -1 | -33,110,231 |
Now, we try dividing 33,110,231 by 3:
33,110,231 ÷ 3 = 11,036,743.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,036,743.6667 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 | 33,110,231 | |
| -1 | -33,110,231 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
33,110,231 ÷ 4 = 8,277,557.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,277,557.75 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 | 33,110,231 | |
| -1 | 33,110,231 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 47 | 49 | 77 | 329 | 517 | 539 | 1,307 | 2,303 | 3,619 | 9,149 | 14,377 | 25,333 | 61,429 | 64,043 | 100,639 | 430,003 | 675,719 | 704,473 | 3,010,021 | 4,730,033 | 33,110,231 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -47 | -49 | -77 | -329 | -517 | -539 | -1,307 | -2,303 | -3,619 | -9,149 | -14,377 | -25,333 | -61,429 | -64,043 | -100,639 | -430,003 | -675,719 | -704,473 | -3,010,021 | -4,730,033 | -33,110,231 |
