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 10,533,565, 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 | 10,533,565 | |
| -1 | -10,533,565 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,533,565.
Example:
1 x 10,533,565 = 10,533,565
and
-1 x -10,533,565 = 10,533,565
Notice both answers equal 10,533,565
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,533,565 and divide it by 2:
10,533,565 ÷ 2 = 5,266,782.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,266,782.5 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 | 10,533,565 | |
| -1 | -10,533,565 |
Now, we try dividing 10,533,565 by 3:
10,533,565 ÷ 3 = 3,511,188.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,511,188.3333 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 | 10,533,565 | |
| -1 | -10,533,565 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,533,565 ÷ 4 = 2,633,391.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,633,391.25 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 | 10,533,565 | |
| -1 | 10,533,565 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 59 | 295 | 413 | 2,065 | 5,101 | 25,505 | 35,707 | 178,535 | 300,959 | 1,504,795 | 2,106,713 | 10,533,565 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -59 | -295 | -413 | -2,065 | -5,101 | -25,505 | -35,707 | -178,535 | -300,959 | -1,504,795 | -2,106,713 | -10,533,565 |
