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 10,450,349, 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 | 10,450,349 | |
| -1 | -10,450,349 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,450,349.
Example:
1 x 10,450,349 = 10,450,349
and
-1 x -10,450,349 = 10,450,349
Notice both answers equal 10,450,349
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,450,349 and divide it by 2:
10,450,349 ÷ 2 = 5,225,174.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,225,174.5 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 | 10,450,349 | |
| -1 | -10,450,349 |
Now, we try dividing 10,450,349 by 3:
10,450,349 ÷ 3 = 3,483,449.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,483,449.6667 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 | 10,450,349 | |
| -1 | -10,450,349 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,450,349 ÷ 4 = 2,612,587.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,612,587.25 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 | 10,450,349 | |
| -1 | 10,450,349 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 23 | 91 | 161 | 299 | 2,093 | 4,993 | 34,951 | 64,909 | 114,839 | 454,363 | 803,873 | 1,492,907 | 10,450,349 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -23 | -91 | -161 | -299 | -2,093 | -4,993 | -34,951 | -64,909 | -114,839 | -454,363 | -803,873 | -1,492,907 | -10,450,349 |
