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 33,348,203, 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 | 33,348,203 | |
| -1 | -33,348,203 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 33,348,203.
Example:
1 x 33,348,203 = 33,348,203
and
-1 x -33,348,203 = 33,348,203
Notice both answers equal 33,348,203
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 33,348,203 and divide it by 2:
33,348,203 ÷ 2 = 16,674,101.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 16,674,101.5 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 | 33,348,203 | |
| -1 | -33,348,203 |
Now, we try dividing 33,348,203 by 3:
33,348,203 ÷ 3 = 11,116,067.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 11,116,067.6667 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 | 33,348,203 | |
| -1 | -33,348,203 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
33,348,203 ÷ 4 = 8,337,050.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 8,337,050.75 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 | 33,348,203 | |
| -1 | 33,348,203 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 71 | 119 | 497 | 1,207 | 3,947 | 8,449 | 27,629 | 67,099 | 280,237 | 469,693 | 1,961,659 | 4,764,029 | 33,348,203 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -71 | -119 | -497 | -1,207 | -3,947 | -8,449 | -27,629 | -67,099 | -280,237 | -469,693 | -1,961,659 | -4,764,029 | -33,348,203 |
