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 11,111,611, 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 | 11,111,611 | |
| -1 | -11,111,611 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 11,111,611.
Example:
1 x 11,111,611 = 11,111,611
and
-1 x -11,111,611 = 11,111,611
Notice both answers equal 11,111,611
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 11,111,611 and divide it by 2:
11,111,611 ÷ 2 = 5,555,805.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,555,805.5 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 | 11,111,611 | |
| -1 | -11,111,611 |
Now, we try dividing 11,111,611 by 3:
11,111,611 ÷ 3 = 3,703,870.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,703,870.3333 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 | 11,111,611 | |
| -1 | -11,111,611 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
11,111,611 ÷ 4 = 2,777,902.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,777,902.75 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 | 11,111,611 | |
| -1 | 11,111,611 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 29 | 127 | 203 | 431 | 889 | 3,017 | 3,683 | 12,499 | 25,781 | 54,737 | 87,493 | 383,159 | 1,587,373 | 11,111,611 |
| -1 | -7 | -29 | -127 | -203 | -431 | -889 | -3,017 | -3,683 | -12,499 | -25,781 | -54,737 | -87,493 | -383,159 | -1,587,373 | -11,111,611 |
