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 41,322,535, 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 | 41,322,535 | |
| -1 | -41,322,535 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 41,322,535.
Example:
1 x 41,322,535 = 41,322,535
and
-1 x -41,322,535 = 41,322,535
Notice both answers equal 41,322,535
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 41,322,535 and divide it by 2:
41,322,535 ÷ 2 = 20,661,267.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 20,661,267.5 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 | 41,322,535 | |
| -1 | -41,322,535 |
Now, we try dividing 41,322,535 by 3:
41,322,535 ÷ 3 = 13,774,178.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 13,774,178.3333 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 | 41,322,535 | |
| -1 | -41,322,535 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
41,322,535 ÷ 4 = 10,330,633.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,330,633.75 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 | 41,322,535 | |
| -1 | 41,322,535 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 29 | 31 | 145 | 155 | 317 | 841 | 899 | 1,585 | 4,205 | 4,495 | 9,193 | 9,827 | 26,071 | 45,965 | 49,135 | 130,355 | 266,597 | 284,983 | 1,332,985 | 1,424,915 | 8,264,507 | 41,322,535 |
| -1 | -5 | -29 | -31 | -145 | -155 | -317 | -841 | -899 | -1,585 | -4,205 | -4,495 | -9,193 | -9,827 | -26,071 | -45,965 | -49,135 | -130,355 | -266,597 | -284,983 | -1,332,985 | -1,424,915 | -8,264,507 | -41,322,535 |
