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 6,026,635, 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 | 6,026,635 | |
| -1 | -6,026,635 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,026,635.
Example:
1 x 6,026,635 = 6,026,635
and
-1 x -6,026,635 = 6,026,635
Notice both answers equal 6,026,635
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,026,635 and divide it by 2:
6,026,635 ÷ 2 = 3,013,317.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,013,317.5 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 | 6,026,635 | |
| -1 | -6,026,635 |
Now, we try dividing 6,026,635 by 3:
6,026,635 ÷ 3 = 2,008,878.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,008,878.3333 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 | 6,026,635 | |
| -1 | -6,026,635 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,026,635 ÷ 4 = 1,506,658.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,506,658.75 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 | 6,026,635 | |
| -1 | 6,026,635 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 29 | 89 | 145 | 445 | 467 | 2,335 | 2,581 | 12,905 | 13,543 | 41,563 | 67,715 | 207,815 | 1,205,327 | 6,026,635 |
| -1 | -5 | -29 | -89 | -145 | -445 | -467 | -2,335 | -2,581 | -12,905 | -13,543 | -41,563 | -67,715 | -207,815 | -1,205,327 | -6,026,635 |
