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 11,605,375, 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 | 11,605,375 | |
| -1 | -11,605,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 11,605,375.
Example:
1 x 11,605,375 = 11,605,375
and
-1 x -11,605,375 = 11,605,375
Notice both answers equal 11,605,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 11,605,375 and divide it by 2:
11,605,375 ÷ 2 = 5,802,687.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,802,687.5 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 | 11,605,375 | |
| -1 | -11,605,375 |
Now, we try dividing 11,605,375 by 3:
11,605,375 ÷ 3 = 3,868,458.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,868,458.3333 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 | 11,605,375 | |
| -1 | -11,605,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
11,605,375 ÷ 4 = 2,901,343.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,901,343.75 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 | 11,605,375 | |
| -1 | 11,605,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 125 | 227 | 409 | 1,135 | 2,045 | 5,675 | 10,225 | 28,375 | 51,125 | 92,843 | 464,215 | 2,321,075 | 11,605,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -125 | -227 | -409 | -1,135 | -2,045 | -5,675 | -10,225 | -28,375 | -51,125 | -92,843 | -464,215 | -2,321,075 | -11,605,375 |
