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 6,317,047, 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 | 6,317,047 | |
| -1 | -6,317,047 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,317,047.
Example:
1 x 6,317,047 = 6,317,047
and
-1 x -6,317,047 = 6,317,047
Notice both answers equal 6,317,047
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,317,047 and divide it by 2:
6,317,047 ÷ 2 = 3,158,523.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,158,523.5 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 | 6,317,047 | |
| -1 | -6,317,047 |
Now, we try dividing 6,317,047 by 3:
6,317,047 ÷ 3 = 2,105,682.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,105,682.3333 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 | 6,317,047 | |
| -1 | -6,317,047 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,317,047 ÷ 4 = 1,579,261.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,579,261.75 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 | 6,317,047 | |
| -1 | 6,317,047 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 17 | 37 | 83 | 121 | 187 | 407 | 629 | 913 | 1,411 | 2,057 | 3,071 | 4,477 | 6,919 | 10,043 | 15,521 | 33,781 | 52,207 | 76,109 | 170,731 | 371,591 | 574,277 | 6,317,047 |
| -1 | -11 | -17 | -37 | -83 | -121 | -187 | -407 | -629 | -913 | -1,411 | -2,057 | -3,071 | -4,477 | -6,919 | -10,043 | -15,521 | -33,781 | -52,207 | -76,109 | -170,731 | -371,591 | -574,277 | -6,317,047 |
