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 16,336,573, 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 | 16,336,573 | |
| -1 | -16,336,573 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 16,336,573.
Example:
1 x 16,336,573 = 16,336,573
and
-1 x -16,336,573 = 16,336,573
Notice both answers equal 16,336,573
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 16,336,573 and divide it by 2:
16,336,573 ÷ 2 = 8,168,286.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 8,168,286.5 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 | 16,336,573 | |
| -1 | -16,336,573 |
Now, we try dividing 16,336,573 by 3:
16,336,573 ÷ 3 = 5,445,524.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 5,445,524.3333 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 | 16,336,573 | |
| -1 | -16,336,573 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
16,336,573 ÷ 4 = 4,084,143.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 4,084,143.25 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 | 16,336,573 | |
| -1 | 16,336,573 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 37 | 41 | 89 | 121 | 407 | 451 | 979 | 1,517 | 3,293 | 3,649 | 4,477 | 4,961 | 10,769 | 16,687 | 36,223 | 40,139 | 135,013 | 183,557 | 398,453 | 441,529 | 1,485,143 | 16,336,573 |
| -1 | -11 | -37 | -41 | -89 | -121 | -407 | -451 | -979 | -1,517 | -3,293 | -3,649 | -4,477 | -4,961 | -10,769 | -16,687 | -36,223 | -40,139 | -135,013 | -183,557 | -398,453 | -441,529 | -1,485,143 | -16,336,573 |
