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 10,051,063, 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 | 10,051,063 | |
| -1 | -10,051,063 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,051,063.
Example:
1 x 10,051,063 = 10,051,063
and
-1 x -10,051,063 = 10,051,063
Notice both answers equal 10,051,063
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,051,063 and divide it by 2:
10,051,063 ÷ 2 = 5,025,531.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,025,531.5 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 | 10,051,063 | |
| -1 | -10,051,063 |
Now, we try dividing 10,051,063 by 3:
10,051,063 ÷ 3 = 3,350,354.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,350,354.3333 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 | 10,051,063 | |
| -1 | -10,051,063 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,051,063 ÷ 4 = 2,512,765.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,512,765.75 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 | 10,051,063 | |
| -1 | 10,051,063 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 17 | 59 | 187 | 649 | 911 | 1,003 | 10,021 | 11,033 | 15,487 | 53,749 | 170,357 | 591,239 | 913,733 | 10,051,063 |
| -1 | -11 | -17 | -59 | -187 | -649 | -911 | -1,003 | -10,021 | -11,033 | -15,487 | -53,749 | -170,357 | -591,239 | -913,733 | -10,051,063 |
