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 6,606,715, 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 | 6,606,715 | |
| -1 | -6,606,715 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,606,715.
Example:
1 x 6,606,715 = 6,606,715
and
-1 x -6,606,715 = 6,606,715
Notice both answers equal 6,606,715
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,606,715 and divide it by 2:
6,606,715 ÷ 2 = 3,303,357.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,303,357.5 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 | 6,606,715 | |
| -1 | -6,606,715 |
Now, we try dividing 6,606,715 by 3:
6,606,715 ÷ 3 = 2,202,238.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,202,238.3333 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 | 6,606,715 | |
| -1 | -6,606,715 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,606,715 ÷ 4 = 1,651,678.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,651,678.75 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 | 6,606,715 | |
| -1 | 6,606,715 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 53 | 107 | 233 | 265 | 535 | 1,165 | 5,671 | 12,349 | 24,931 | 28,355 | 61,745 | 124,655 | 1,321,343 | 6,606,715 |
| -1 | -5 | -53 | -107 | -233 | -265 | -535 | -1,165 | -5,671 | -12,349 | -24,931 | -28,355 | -61,745 | -124,655 | -1,321,343 | -6,606,715 |
