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 10,340,777, 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 | 10,340,777 | |
| -1 | -10,340,777 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,340,777.
Example:
1 x 10,340,777 = 10,340,777
and
-1 x -10,340,777 = 10,340,777
Notice both answers equal 10,340,777
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,340,777 and divide it by 2:
10,340,777 ÷ 2 = 5,170,388.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,170,388.5 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 | 10,340,777 | |
| -1 | -10,340,777 |
Now, we try dividing 10,340,777 by 3:
10,340,777 ÷ 3 = 3,446,925.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,446,925.6667 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 | 10,340,777 | |
| -1 | -10,340,777 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,340,777 ÷ 4 = 2,585,194.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,585,194.25 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 | 10,340,777 | |
| -1 | 10,340,777 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 17 | 23 | 53 | 391 | 499 | 901 | 1,219 | 8,483 | 11,477 | 20,723 | 26,447 | 195,109 | 449,599 | 608,281 | 10,340,777 |
| -1 | -17 | -23 | -53 | -391 | -499 | -901 | -1,219 | -8,483 | -11,477 | -20,723 | -26,447 | -195,109 | -449,599 | -608,281 | -10,340,777 |
