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 10,883,455, 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 | 10,883,455 | |
| -1 | -10,883,455 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 10,883,455.
Example:
1 x 10,883,455 = 10,883,455
and
-1 x -10,883,455 = 10,883,455
Notice both answers equal 10,883,455
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 10,883,455 and divide it by 2:
10,883,455 ÷ 2 = 5,441,727.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,441,727.5 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 | 10,883,455 | |
| -1 | -10,883,455 |
Now, we try dividing 10,883,455 by 3:
10,883,455 ÷ 3 = 3,627,818.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,627,818.3333 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 | 10,883,455 | |
| -1 | -10,883,455 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
10,883,455 ÷ 4 = 2,720,863.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,720,863.75 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 | 10,883,455 | |
| -1 | 10,883,455 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 433 | 457 | 2,165 | 2,285 | 4,763 | 5,027 | 23,815 | 25,135 | 197,881 | 989,405 | 2,176,691 | 10,883,455 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -433 | -457 | -2,165 | -2,285 | -4,763 | -5,027 | -23,815 | -25,135 | -197,881 | -989,405 | -2,176,691 | -10,883,455 |
