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 10,703,455, 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 | 10,703,455 | |
| -1 | -10,703,455 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,703,455.
Example:
1 x 10,703,455 = 10,703,455
and
-1 x -10,703,455 = 10,703,455
Notice both answers equal 10,703,455
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,703,455 and divide it by 2:
10,703,455 ÷ 2 = 5,351,727.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,351,727.5 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 | 10,703,455 | |
| -1 | -10,703,455 |
Now, we try dividing 10,703,455 by 3:
10,703,455 ÷ 3 = 3,567,818.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,567,818.3333 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 | 10,703,455 | |
| -1 | -10,703,455 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,703,455 ÷ 4 = 2,675,863.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,675,863.75 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 | 10,703,455 | |
| -1 | 10,703,455 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 17 | 35 | 85 | 119 | 595 | 17,989 | 89,945 | 125,923 | 305,813 | 629,615 | 1,529,065 | 2,140,691 | 10,703,455 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -17 | -35 | -85 | -119 | -595 | -17,989 | -89,945 | -125,923 | -305,813 | -629,615 | -1,529,065 | -2,140,691 | -10,703,455 |
