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 10,373,755, 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 | 10,373,755 | |
| -1 | -10,373,755 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,373,755.
Example:
1 x 10,373,755 = 10,373,755
and
-1 x -10,373,755 = 10,373,755
Notice both answers equal 10,373,755
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,373,755 and divide it by 2:
10,373,755 ÷ 2 = 5,186,877.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,186,877.5 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 | 10,373,755 | |
| -1 | -10,373,755 |
Now, we try dividing 10,373,755 by 3:
10,373,755 ÷ 3 = 3,457,918.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,457,918.3333 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 | 10,373,755 | |
| -1 | -10,373,755 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,373,755 ÷ 4 = 2,593,438.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,593,438.75 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 | 10,373,755 | |
| -1 | 10,373,755 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 83 | 415 | 581 | 2,905 | 3,571 | 17,855 | 24,997 | 124,985 | 296,393 | 1,481,965 | 2,074,751 | 10,373,755 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -83 | -415 | -581 | -2,905 | -3,571 | -17,855 | -24,997 | -124,985 | -296,393 | -1,481,965 | -2,074,751 | -10,373,755 |
