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 10,520,545, 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 | 10,520,545 | |
| -1 | -10,520,545 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,520,545.
Example:
1 x 10,520,545 = 10,520,545
and
-1 x -10,520,545 = 10,520,545
Notice both answers equal 10,520,545
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,520,545 and divide it by 2:
10,520,545 ÷ 2 = 5,260,272.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,260,272.5 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 | 10,520,545 | |
| -1 | -10,520,545 |
Now, we try dividing 10,520,545 by 3:
10,520,545 ÷ 3 = 3,506,848.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,506,848.3333 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 | 10,520,545 | |
| -1 | -10,520,545 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,520,545 ÷ 4 = 2,630,136.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,630,136.25 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 | 10,520,545 | |
| -1 | 10,520,545 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 35 | 49 | 115 | 161 | 245 | 805 | 1,127 | 1,867 | 5,635 | 9,335 | 13,069 | 42,941 | 65,345 | 91,483 | 214,705 | 300,587 | 457,415 | 1,502,935 | 2,104,109 | 10,520,545 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -35 | -49 | -115 | -161 | -245 | -805 | -1,127 | -1,867 | -5,635 | -9,335 | -13,069 | -42,941 | -65,345 | -91,483 | -214,705 | -300,587 | -457,415 | -1,502,935 | -2,104,109 | -10,520,545 |
