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 17,067,677, 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 | 17,067,677 | |
| -1 | -17,067,677 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 17,067,677.
Example:
1 x 17,067,677 = 17,067,677
and
-1 x -17,067,677 = 17,067,677
Notice both answers equal 17,067,677
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 17,067,677 and divide it by 2:
17,067,677 ÷ 2 = 8,533,838.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 8,533,838.5 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 | 17,067,677 | |
| -1 | -17,067,677 |
Now, we try dividing 17,067,677 by 3:
17,067,677 ÷ 3 = 5,689,225.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 5,689,225.6667 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 | 17,067,677 | |
| -1 | -17,067,677 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
17,067,677 ÷ 4 = 4,266,919.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 4,266,919.25 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 | 17,067,677 | |
| -1 | 17,067,677 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 17 | 107 | 187 | 853 | 1,177 | 1,819 | 9,383 | 14,501 | 20,009 | 91,271 | 159,511 | 1,003,981 | 1,551,607 | 17,067,677 |
| -1 | -11 | -17 | -107 | -187 | -853 | -1,177 | -1,819 | -9,383 | -14,501 | -20,009 | -91,271 | -159,511 | -1,003,981 | -1,551,607 | -17,067,677 |
