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 7,046,039, 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 | 7,046,039 | |
| -1 | -7,046,039 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,046,039.
Example:
1 x 7,046,039 = 7,046,039
and
-1 x -7,046,039 = 7,046,039
Notice both answers equal 7,046,039
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,046,039 and divide it by 2:
7,046,039 ÷ 2 = 3,523,019.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,523,019.5 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 | 7,046,039 | |
| -1 | -7,046,039 |
Now, we try dividing 7,046,039 by 3:
7,046,039 ÷ 3 = 2,348,679.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,348,679.6667 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 | 7,046,039 | |
| -1 | -7,046,039 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,046,039 ÷ 4 = 1,761,509.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,761,509.75 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 | 7,046,039 | |
| -1 | 7,046,039 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 13 | 77 | 91 | 143 | 1,001 | 7,039 | 49,273 | 77,429 | 91,507 | 542,003 | 640,549 | 1,006,577 | 7,046,039 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -13 | -77 | -91 | -143 | -1,001 | -7,039 | -49,273 | -77,429 | -91,507 | -542,003 | -640,549 | -1,006,577 | -7,046,039 |
