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 10,114,727, 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 | 10,114,727 | |
| -1 | -10,114,727 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,114,727.
Example:
1 x 10,114,727 = 10,114,727
and
-1 x -10,114,727 = 10,114,727
Notice both answers equal 10,114,727
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,114,727 and divide it by 2:
10,114,727 ÷ 2 = 5,057,363.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,057,363.5 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 | 10,114,727 | |
| -1 | -10,114,727 |
Now, we try dividing 10,114,727 by 3:
10,114,727 ÷ 3 = 3,371,575.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,371,575.6667 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 | 10,114,727 | |
| -1 | -10,114,727 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,114,727 ÷ 4 = 2,528,681.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,528,681.75 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 | 10,114,727 | |
| -1 | 10,114,727 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 37 | 49 | 259 | 343 | 797 | 1,813 | 5,579 | 12,691 | 29,489 | 39,053 | 206,423 | 273,371 | 1,444,961 | 10,114,727 |
| -1 | -7 | -37 | -49 | -259 | -343 | -797 | -1,813 | -5,579 | -12,691 | -29,489 | -39,053 | -206,423 | -273,371 | -1,444,961 | -10,114,727 |
