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 10,411,709, 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 | 10,411,709 | |
| -1 | -10,411,709 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,411,709.
Example:
1 x 10,411,709 = 10,411,709
and
-1 x -10,411,709 = 10,411,709
Notice both answers equal 10,411,709
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,411,709 and divide it by 2:
10,411,709 ÷ 2 = 5,205,854.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,205,854.5 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 | 10,411,709 | |
| -1 | -10,411,709 |
Now, we try dividing 10,411,709 by 3:
10,411,709 ÷ 3 = 3,470,569.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,470,569.6667 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 | 10,411,709 | |
| -1 | -10,411,709 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,411,709 ÷ 4 = 2,602,927.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,602,927.25 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 | 10,411,709 | |
| -1 | 10,411,709 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 23 | 77 | 161 | 253 | 1,771 | 5,879 | 41,153 | 64,669 | 135,217 | 452,683 | 946,519 | 1,487,387 | 10,411,709 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -23 | -77 | -161 | -253 | -1,771 | -5,879 | -41,153 | -64,669 | -135,217 | -452,683 | -946,519 | -1,487,387 | -10,411,709 |
