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 7,692,743, 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 | 7,692,743 | |
| -1 | -7,692,743 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,692,743.
Example:
1 x 7,692,743 = 7,692,743
and
-1 x -7,692,743 = 7,692,743
Notice both answers equal 7,692,743
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,692,743 and divide it by 2:
7,692,743 ÷ 2 = 3,846,371.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,846,371.5 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 | 7,692,743 | |
| -1 | -7,692,743 |
Now, we try dividing 7,692,743 by 3:
7,692,743 ÷ 3 = 2,564,247.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,564,247.6667 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 | 7,692,743 | |
| -1 | -7,692,743 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,692,743 ÷ 4 = 1,923,185.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,923,185.75 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 | 7,692,743 | |
| -1 | 7,692,743 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 29 | 31 | 43 | 199 | 899 | 1,247 | 1,333 | 5,771 | 6,169 | 8,557 | 38,657 | 178,901 | 248,153 | 265,267 | 7,692,743 |
| -1 | -29 | -31 | -43 | -199 | -899 | -1,247 | -1,333 | -5,771 | -6,169 | -8,557 | -38,657 | -178,901 | -248,153 | -265,267 | -7,692,743 |
