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 7,606,207, 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 | 7,606,207 | |
| -1 | -7,606,207 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,606,207.
Example:
1 x 7,606,207 = 7,606,207
and
-1 x -7,606,207 = 7,606,207
Notice both answers equal 7,606,207
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,606,207 and divide it by 2:
7,606,207 ÷ 2 = 3,803,103.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,803,103.5 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 | 7,606,207 | |
| -1 | -7,606,207 |
Now, we try dividing 7,606,207 by 3:
7,606,207 ÷ 3 = 2,535,402.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,535,402.3333 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 | 7,606,207 | |
| -1 | -7,606,207 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,606,207 ÷ 4 = 1,901,551.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,901,551.75 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 | 7,606,207 | |
| -1 | 7,606,207 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 29 | 89 | 203 | 421 | 623 | 2,581 | 2,947 | 12,209 | 18,067 | 37,469 | 85,463 | 262,283 | 1,086,601 | 7,606,207 |
| -1 | -7 | -29 | -89 | -203 | -421 | -623 | -2,581 | -2,947 | -12,209 | -18,067 | -37,469 | -85,463 | -262,283 | -1,086,601 | -7,606,207 |
