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 10,436,375, 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 | 10,436,375 | |
| -1 | -10,436,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,436,375.
Example:
1 x 10,436,375 = 10,436,375
and
-1 x -10,436,375 = 10,436,375
Notice both answers equal 10,436,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,436,375 and divide it by 2:
10,436,375 ÷ 2 = 5,218,187.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,218,187.5 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 | 10,436,375 | |
| -1 | -10,436,375 |
Now, we try dividing 10,436,375 by 3:
10,436,375 ÷ 3 = 3,478,791.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,478,791.6667 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 | 10,436,375 | |
| -1 | -10,436,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,436,375 ÷ 4 = 2,609,093.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,609,093.75 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 | 10,436,375 | |
| -1 | 10,436,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 29 | 125 | 145 | 725 | 2,879 | 3,625 | 14,395 | 71,975 | 83,491 | 359,875 | 417,455 | 2,087,275 | 10,436,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -29 | -125 | -145 | -725 | -2,879 | -3,625 | -14,395 | -71,975 | -83,491 | -359,875 | -417,455 | -2,087,275 | -10,436,375 |
