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 11,826,035, 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 | 11,826,035 | |
| -1 | -11,826,035 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 11,826,035.
Example:
1 x 11,826,035 = 11,826,035
and
-1 x -11,826,035 = 11,826,035
Notice both answers equal 11,826,035
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 11,826,035 and divide it by 2:
11,826,035 ÷ 2 = 5,913,017.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,913,017.5 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 | 11,826,035 | |
| -1 | -11,826,035 |
Now, we try dividing 11,826,035 by 3:
11,826,035 ÷ 3 = 3,942,011.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,942,011.6667 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 | 11,826,035 | |
| -1 | -11,826,035 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
11,826,035 ÷ 4 = 2,956,508.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,956,508.75 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 | 11,826,035 | |
| -1 | 11,826,035 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 31 | 65 | 155 | 403 | 2,015 | 5,869 | 29,345 | 76,297 | 181,939 | 381,485 | 909,695 | 2,365,207 | 11,826,035 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -31 | -65 | -155 | -403 | -2,015 | -5,869 | -29,345 | -76,297 | -181,939 | -381,485 | -909,695 | -2,365,207 | -11,826,035 |
