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 12,063,415, 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 | 12,063,415 | |
| -1 | -12,063,415 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 12,063,415.
Example:
1 x 12,063,415 = 12,063,415
and
-1 x -12,063,415 = 12,063,415
Notice both answers equal 12,063,415
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 12,063,415 and divide it by 2:
12,063,415 ÷ 2 = 6,031,707.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 6,031,707.5 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 | 12,063,415 | |
| -1 | -12,063,415 |
Now, we try dividing 12,063,415 by 3:
12,063,415 ÷ 3 = 4,021,138.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,021,138.3333 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 | 12,063,415 | |
| -1 | -12,063,415 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
12,063,415 ÷ 4 = 3,015,853.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,015,853.75 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 | 12,063,415 | |
| -1 | 12,063,415 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 13 | 35 | 65 | 91 | 455 | 26,513 | 132,565 | 185,591 | 344,669 | 927,955 | 1,723,345 | 2,412,683 | 12,063,415 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -13 | -35 | -65 | -91 | -455 | -26,513 | -132,565 | -185,591 | -344,669 | -927,955 | -1,723,345 | -2,412,683 | -12,063,415 |
