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 10,554,367, 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 | 10,554,367 | |
| -1 | -10,554,367 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,554,367.
Example:
1 x 10,554,367 = 10,554,367
and
-1 x -10,554,367 = 10,554,367
Notice both answers equal 10,554,367
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,554,367 and divide it by 2:
10,554,367 ÷ 2 = 5,277,183.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,277,183.5 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 | 10,554,367 | |
| -1 | -10,554,367 |
Now, we try dividing 10,554,367 by 3:
10,554,367 ÷ 3 = 3,518,122.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,518,122.3333 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 | 10,554,367 | |
| -1 | -10,554,367 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,554,367 ÷ 4 = 2,638,591.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,638,591.75 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 | 10,554,367 | |
| -1 | 10,554,367 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 47 | 53 | 223 | 893 | 1,007 | 2,491 | 4,237 | 10,481 | 11,819 | 47,329 | 199,139 | 224,561 | 555,493 | 10,554,367 |
| -1 | -19 | -47 | -53 | -223 | -893 | -1,007 | -2,491 | -4,237 | -10,481 | -11,819 | -47,329 | -199,139 | -224,561 | -555,493 | -10,554,367 |
