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 10,350,571, 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 | 10,350,571 | |
| -1 | -10,350,571 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,350,571.
Example:
1 x 10,350,571 = 10,350,571
and
-1 x -10,350,571 = 10,350,571
Notice both answers equal 10,350,571
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,350,571 and divide it by 2:
10,350,571 ÷ 2 = 5,175,285.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,175,285.5 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 | 10,350,571 | |
| -1 | -10,350,571 |
Now, we try dividing 10,350,571 by 3:
10,350,571 ÷ 3 = 3,450,190.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,450,190.3333 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 | 10,350,571 | |
| -1 | -10,350,571 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,350,571 ÷ 4 = 2,587,642.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,587,642.75 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 | 10,350,571 | |
| -1 | 10,350,571 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 77 | 229 | 587 | 1,603 | 2,519 | 4,109 | 6,457 | 17,633 | 45,199 | 134,423 | 940,961 | 1,478,653 | 10,350,571 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -77 | -229 | -587 | -1,603 | -2,519 | -4,109 | -6,457 | -17,633 | -45,199 | -134,423 | -940,961 | -1,478,653 | -10,350,571 |
