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 7,036,555, 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 | 7,036,555 | |
| -1 | -7,036,555 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,036,555.
Example:
1 x 7,036,555 = 7,036,555
and
-1 x -7,036,555 = 7,036,555
Notice both answers equal 7,036,555
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,036,555 and divide it by 2:
7,036,555 ÷ 2 = 3,518,277.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,518,277.5 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 | 7,036,555 | |
| -1 | -7,036,555 |
Now, we try dividing 7,036,555 by 3:
7,036,555 ÷ 3 = 2,345,518.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,345,518.3333 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 | 7,036,555 | |
| -1 | -7,036,555 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,036,555 ÷ 4 = 1,759,138.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,759,138.75 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 | 7,036,555 | |
| -1 | 7,036,555 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 19 | 85 | 95 | 323 | 1,615 | 4,357 | 21,785 | 74,069 | 82,783 | 370,345 | 413,915 | 1,407,311 | 7,036,555 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -19 | -85 | -95 | -323 | -1,615 | -4,357 | -21,785 | -74,069 | -82,783 | -370,345 | -413,915 | -1,407,311 | -7,036,555 |
