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 11,000,003, 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 | 11,000,003 | |
| -1 | -11,000,003 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 11,000,003.
Example:
1 x 11,000,003 = 11,000,003
and
-1 x -11,000,003 = 11,000,003
Notice both answers equal 11,000,003
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 11,000,003 and divide it by 2:
11,000,003 ÷ 2 = 5,500,001.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,500,001.5 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 | 11,000,003 | |
| -1 | -11,000,003 |
Now, we try dividing 11,000,003 by 3:
11,000,003 ÷ 3 = 3,666,667.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,666,667.6667 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 | 11,000,003 | |
| -1 | -11,000,003 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
11,000,003 ÷ 4 = 2,750,000.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,750,000.75 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 | 11,000,003 | |
| -1 | 11,000,003 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 23 | 119 | 161 | 391 | 2,737 | 4,019 | 28,133 | 68,323 | 92,437 | 478,261 | 647,059 | 1,571,429 | 11,000,003 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -23 | -119 | -161 | -391 | -2,737 | -4,019 | -28,133 | -68,323 | -92,437 | -478,261 | -647,059 | -1,571,429 | -11,000,003 |
