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 43,510,435, 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 | 43,510,435 | |
| -1 | -43,510,435 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 43,510,435.
Example:
1 x 43,510,435 = 43,510,435
and
-1 x -43,510,435 = 43,510,435
Notice both answers equal 43,510,435
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 43,510,435 and divide it by 2:
43,510,435 ÷ 2 = 21,755,217.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 21,755,217.5 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 | 43,510,435 | |
| -1 | -43,510,435 |
Now, we try dividing 43,510,435 by 3:
43,510,435 ÷ 3 = 14,503,478.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,503,478.3333 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 | 43,510,435 | |
| -1 | -43,510,435 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
43,510,435 ÷ 4 = 10,877,608.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,877,608.75 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 | 43,510,435 | |
| -1 | 43,510,435 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 59 | 79 | 295 | 395 | 1,867 | 4,661 | 9,335 | 23,305 | 110,153 | 147,493 | 550,765 | 737,465 | 8,702,087 | 43,510,435 |
| -1 | -5 | -59 | -79 | -295 | -395 | -1,867 | -4,661 | -9,335 | -23,305 | -110,153 | -147,493 | -550,765 | -737,465 | -8,702,087 | -43,510,435 |
