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 10,053,035, 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 | 10,053,035 | |
| -1 | -10,053,035 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,053,035.
Example:
1 x 10,053,035 = 10,053,035
and
-1 x -10,053,035 = 10,053,035
Notice both answers equal 10,053,035
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,053,035 and divide it by 2:
10,053,035 ÷ 2 = 5,026,517.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,026,517.5 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 | 10,053,035 | |
| -1 | -10,053,035 |
Now, we try dividing 10,053,035 by 3:
10,053,035 ÷ 3 = 3,351,011.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,351,011.6667 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 | 10,053,035 | |
| -1 | -10,053,035 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,053,035 ÷ 4 = 2,513,258.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,513,258.75 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 | 10,053,035 | |
| -1 | 10,053,035 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 85 | 101 | 505 | 1,171 | 1,717 | 5,855 | 8,585 | 19,907 | 99,535 | 118,271 | 591,355 | 2,010,607 | 10,053,035 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -85 | -101 | -505 | -1,171 | -1,717 | -5,855 | -8,585 | -19,907 | -99,535 | -118,271 | -591,355 | -2,010,607 | -10,053,035 |
