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 10,350,865, 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 | 10,350,865 | |
| -1 | -10,350,865 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,350,865.
Example:
1 x 10,350,865 = 10,350,865
and
-1 x -10,350,865 = 10,350,865
Notice both answers equal 10,350,865
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,350,865 and divide it by 2:
10,350,865 ÷ 2 = 5,175,432.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,175,432.5 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 | 10,350,865 | |
| -1 | -10,350,865 |
Now, we try dividing 10,350,865 by 3:
10,350,865 ÷ 3 = 3,450,288.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,450,288.3333 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 | 10,350,865 | |
| -1 | -10,350,865 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,350,865 ÷ 4 = 2,587,716.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,587,716.25 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 | 10,350,865 | |
| -1 | 10,350,865 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 433 | 683 | 2,165 | 3,031 | 3,415 | 4,781 | 15,155 | 23,905 | 295,739 | 1,478,695 | 2,070,173 | 10,350,865 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -433 | -683 | -2,165 | -3,031 | -3,415 | -4,781 | -15,155 | -23,905 | -295,739 | -1,478,695 | -2,070,173 | -10,350,865 |
