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 3,363,773, 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 | 3,363,773 | |
| -1 | -3,363,773 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,363,773.
Example:
1 x 3,363,773 = 3,363,773
and
-1 x -3,363,773 = 3,363,773
Notice both answers equal 3,363,773
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,363,773 and divide it by 2:
3,363,773 ÷ 2 = 1,681,886.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,681,886.5 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 | 3,363,773 | |
| -1 | -3,363,773 |
Now, we try dividing 3,363,773 by 3:
3,363,773 ÷ 3 = 1,121,257.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,121,257.6667 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 | 3,363,773 | |
| -1 | -3,363,773 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,363,773 ÷ 4 = 840,943.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 840,943.25 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 | 3,363,773 | |
| -1 | 3,363,773 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 23 | 119 | 161 | 391 | 1,229 | 2,737 | 8,603 | 20,893 | 28,267 | 146,251 | 197,869 | 480,539 | 3,363,773 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -23 | -119 | -161 | -391 | -1,229 | -2,737 | -8,603 | -20,893 | -28,267 | -146,251 | -197,869 | -480,539 | -3,363,773 |
