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 10,560,785, 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 | 10,560,785 | |
| -1 | -10,560,785 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,560,785.
Example:
1 x 10,560,785 = 10,560,785
and
-1 x -10,560,785 = 10,560,785
Notice both answers equal 10,560,785
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,560,785 and divide it by 2:
10,560,785 ÷ 2 = 5,280,392.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,280,392.5 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 | 10,560,785 | |
| -1 | -10,560,785 |
Now, we try dividing 10,560,785 by 3:
10,560,785 ÷ 3 = 3,520,261.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,520,261.6667 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 | 10,560,785 | |
| -1 | -10,560,785 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,560,785 ÷ 4 = 2,640,196.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,640,196.25 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 | 10,560,785 | |
| -1 | 10,560,785 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 29 | 145 | 173 | 421 | 865 | 2,105 | 5,017 | 12,209 | 25,085 | 61,045 | 72,833 | 364,165 | 2,112,157 | 10,560,785 |
| -1 | -5 | -29 | -145 | -173 | -421 | -865 | -2,105 | -5,017 | -12,209 | -25,085 | -61,045 | -72,833 | -364,165 | -2,112,157 | -10,560,785 |
