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 10,804,045, 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 | 10,804,045 | |
| -1 | -10,804,045 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,804,045.
Example:
1 x 10,804,045 = 10,804,045
and
-1 x -10,804,045 = 10,804,045
Notice both answers equal 10,804,045
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,804,045 and divide it by 2:
10,804,045 ÷ 2 = 5,402,022.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,402,022.5 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 | 10,804,045 | |
| -1 | -10,804,045 |
Now, we try dividing 10,804,045 by 3:
10,804,045 ÷ 3 = 3,601,348.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,601,348.3333 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 | 10,804,045 | |
| -1 | -10,804,045 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,804,045 ÷ 4 = 2,701,011.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,701,011.25 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 | 10,804,045 | |
| -1 | 10,804,045 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 467 | 661 | 2,335 | 3,269 | 3,305 | 4,627 | 16,345 | 23,135 | 308,687 | 1,543,435 | 2,160,809 | 10,804,045 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -467 | -661 | -2,335 | -3,269 | -3,305 | -4,627 | -16,345 | -23,135 | -308,687 | -1,543,435 | -2,160,809 | -10,804,045 |
