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 7,101,595, 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 | 7,101,595 | |
| -1 | -7,101,595 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,101,595.
Example:
1 x 7,101,595 = 7,101,595
and
-1 x -7,101,595 = 7,101,595
Notice both answers equal 7,101,595
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,101,595 and divide it by 2:
7,101,595 ÷ 2 = 3,550,797.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,550,797.5 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 | 7,101,595 | |
| -1 | -7,101,595 |
Now, we try dividing 7,101,595 by 3:
7,101,595 ÷ 3 = 2,367,198.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,367,198.3333 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 | 7,101,595 | |
| -1 | -7,101,595 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,101,595 ÷ 4 = 1,775,398.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,775,398.75 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 | 7,101,595 | |
| -1 | 7,101,595 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 37 | 115 | 185 | 851 | 1,669 | 4,255 | 8,345 | 38,387 | 61,753 | 191,935 | 308,765 | 1,420,319 | 7,101,595 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -37 | -115 | -185 | -851 | -1,669 | -4,255 | -8,345 | -38,387 | -61,753 | -191,935 | -308,765 | -1,420,319 | -7,101,595 |
