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 13,763,827, 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 | 13,763,827 | |
| -1 | -13,763,827 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 13,763,827.
Example:
1 x 13,763,827 = 13,763,827
and
-1 x -13,763,827 = 13,763,827
Notice both answers equal 13,763,827
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 13,763,827 and divide it by 2:
13,763,827 ÷ 2 = 6,881,913.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 6,881,913.5 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 | 13,763,827 | |
| -1 | -13,763,827 |
Now, we try dividing 13,763,827 by 3:
13,763,827 ÷ 3 = 4,587,942.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,587,942.3333 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 | 13,763,827 | |
| -1 | -13,763,827 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
13,763,827 ÷ 4 = 3,440,956.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,440,956.75 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 | 13,763,827 | |
| -1 | 13,763,827 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 43 | 77 | 301 | 473 | 3,311 | 4,157 | 29,099 | 45,727 | 178,751 | 320,089 | 1,251,257 | 1,966,261 | 13,763,827 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -43 | -77 | -301 | -473 | -3,311 | -4,157 | -29,099 | -45,727 | -178,751 | -320,089 | -1,251,257 | -1,966,261 | -13,763,827 |
