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 10,766,371, 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 | 10,766,371 | |
| -1 | -10,766,371 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,766,371.
Example:
1 x 10,766,371 = 10,766,371
and
-1 x -10,766,371 = 10,766,371
Notice both answers equal 10,766,371
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,766,371 and divide it by 2:
10,766,371 ÷ 2 = 5,383,185.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,383,185.5 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 | 10,766,371 | |
| -1 | -10,766,371 |
Now, we try dividing 10,766,371 by 3:
10,766,371 ÷ 3 = 3,588,790.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,588,790.3333 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 | 10,766,371 | |
| -1 | -10,766,371 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,766,371 ÷ 4 = 2,691,592.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,691,592.75 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 | 10,766,371 | |
| -1 | 10,766,371 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 37 | 77 | 259 | 407 | 2,849 | 3,779 | 26,453 | 41,569 | 139,823 | 290,983 | 978,761 | 1,538,053 | 10,766,371 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -37 | -77 | -259 | -407 | -2,849 | -3,779 | -26,453 | -41,569 | -139,823 | -290,983 | -978,761 | -1,538,053 | -10,766,371 |
