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 10,220,309, 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 | 10,220,309 | |
| -1 | -10,220,309 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,220,309.
Example:
1 x 10,220,309 = 10,220,309
and
-1 x -10,220,309 = 10,220,309
Notice both answers equal 10,220,309
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,220,309 and divide it by 2:
10,220,309 ÷ 2 = 5,110,154.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,110,154.5 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 | 10,220,309 | |
| -1 | -10,220,309 |
Now, we try dividing 10,220,309 by 3:
10,220,309 ÷ 3 = 3,406,769.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,406,769.6667 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 | 10,220,309 | |
| -1 | -10,220,309 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,220,309 ÷ 4 = 2,555,077.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,555,077.25 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 | 10,220,309 | |
| -1 | 10,220,309 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 19 | 79 | 209 | 619 | 869 | 1,501 | 6,809 | 11,761 | 16,511 | 48,901 | 129,371 | 537,911 | 929,119 | 10,220,309 |
| -1 | -11 | -19 | -79 | -209 | -619 | -869 | -1,501 | -6,809 | -11,761 | -16,511 | -48,901 | -129,371 | -537,911 | -929,119 | -10,220,309 |
