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 16,460,335, 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 | 16,460,335 | |
| -1 | -16,460,335 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 16,460,335.
Example:
1 x 16,460,335 = 16,460,335
and
-1 x -16,460,335 = 16,460,335
Notice both answers equal 16,460,335
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 16,460,335 and divide it by 2:
16,460,335 ÷ 2 = 8,230,167.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 8,230,167.5 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 | 16,460,335 | |
| -1 | -16,460,335 |
Now, we try dividing 16,460,335 by 3:
16,460,335 ÷ 3 = 5,486,778.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 5,486,778.3333 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 | 16,460,335 | |
| -1 | -16,460,335 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
16,460,335 ÷ 4 = 4,115,083.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 4,115,083.75 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 | 16,460,335 | |
| -1 | 16,460,335 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 85 | 197 | 983 | 985 | 3,349 | 4,915 | 16,711 | 16,745 | 83,555 | 193,651 | 968,255 | 3,292,067 | 16,460,335 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -85 | -197 | -983 | -985 | -3,349 | -4,915 | -16,711 | -16,745 | -83,555 | -193,651 | -968,255 | -3,292,067 | -16,460,335 |
