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 10,683,415, 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 | 10,683,415 | |
| -1 | -10,683,415 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,683,415.
Example:
1 x 10,683,415 = 10,683,415
and
-1 x -10,683,415 = 10,683,415
Notice both answers equal 10,683,415
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,683,415 and divide it by 2:
10,683,415 ÷ 2 = 5,341,707.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,341,707.5 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 | 10,683,415 | |
| -1 | -10,683,415 |
Now, we try dividing 10,683,415 by 3:
10,683,415 ÷ 3 = 3,561,138.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,561,138.3333 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 | 10,683,415 | |
| -1 | -10,683,415 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,683,415 ÷ 4 = 2,670,853.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,670,853.75 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 | 10,683,415 | |
| -1 | 10,683,415 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 95 | 107 | 535 | 1,051 | 2,033 | 5,255 | 10,165 | 19,969 | 99,845 | 112,457 | 562,285 | 2,136,683 | 10,683,415 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -95 | -107 | -535 | -1,051 | -2,033 | -5,255 | -10,165 | -19,969 | -99,845 | -112,457 | -562,285 | -2,136,683 | -10,683,415 |
