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 16,759,589, 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 | 16,759,589 | |
| -1 | -16,759,589 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 16,759,589.
Example:
1 x 16,759,589 = 16,759,589
and
-1 x -16,759,589 = 16,759,589
Notice both answers equal 16,759,589
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 16,759,589 and divide it by 2:
16,759,589 ÷ 2 = 8,379,794.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 8,379,794.5 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 | 16,759,589 | |
| -1 | -16,759,589 |
Now, we try dividing 16,759,589 by 3:
16,759,589 ÷ 3 = 5,586,529.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 5,586,529.6667 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 | 16,759,589 | |
| -1 | -16,759,589 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
16,759,589 ÷ 4 = 4,189,897.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 4,189,897.25 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 | 16,759,589 | |
| -1 | 16,759,589 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 47 | 77 | 121 | 329 | 421 | 517 | 847 | 2,947 | 3,619 | 4,631 | 5,687 | 19,787 | 32,417 | 39,809 | 50,941 | 138,509 | 217,657 | 356,587 | 1,523,599 | 2,394,227 | 16,759,589 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -47 | -77 | -121 | -329 | -421 | -517 | -847 | -2,947 | -3,619 | -4,631 | -5,687 | -19,787 | -32,417 | -39,809 | -50,941 | -138,509 | -217,657 | -356,587 | -1,523,599 | -2,394,227 | -16,759,589 |
