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 10,036,351, 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 | 10,036,351 | |
| -1 | -10,036,351 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,036,351.
Example:
1 x 10,036,351 = 10,036,351
and
-1 x -10,036,351 = 10,036,351
Notice both answers equal 10,036,351
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,036,351 and divide it by 2:
10,036,351 ÷ 2 = 5,018,175.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,018,175.5 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 | 10,036,351 | |
| -1 | -10,036,351 |
Now, we try dividing 10,036,351 by 3:
10,036,351 ÷ 3 = 3,345,450.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,345,450.3333 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 | 10,036,351 | |
| -1 | -10,036,351 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,036,351 ÷ 4 = 2,509,087.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,509,087.75 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 | 10,036,351 | |
| -1 | 10,036,351 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 19 | 179 | 227 | 247 | 2,327 | 2,951 | 3,401 | 4,313 | 40,633 | 44,213 | 56,069 | 528,229 | 772,027 | 10,036,351 |
| -1 | -13 | -19 | -179 | -227 | -247 | -2,327 | -2,951 | -3,401 | -4,313 | -40,633 | -44,213 | -56,069 | -528,229 | -772,027 | -10,036,351 |
