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 11,580,335, 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 | 11,580,335 | |
| -1 | -11,580,335 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 11,580,335.
Example:
1 x 11,580,335 = 11,580,335
and
-1 x -11,580,335 = 11,580,335
Notice both answers equal 11,580,335
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 11,580,335 and divide it by 2:
11,580,335 ÷ 2 = 5,790,167.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,790,167.5 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 | 11,580,335 | |
| -1 | -11,580,335 |
Now, we try dividing 11,580,335 by 3:
11,580,335 ÷ 3 = 3,860,111.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,860,111.6667 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 | 11,580,335 | |
| -1 | -11,580,335 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
11,580,335 ÷ 4 = 2,895,083.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,895,083.75 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 | 11,580,335 | |
| -1 | 11,580,335 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 163 | 815 | 1,093 | 2,119 | 5,465 | 10,595 | 14,209 | 71,045 | 178,159 | 890,795 | 2,316,067 | 11,580,335 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -163 | -815 | -1,093 | -2,119 | -5,465 | -10,595 | -14,209 | -71,045 | -178,159 | -890,795 | -2,316,067 | -11,580,335 |
