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 8,075,717, 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 | 8,075,717 | |
| -1 | -8,075,717 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,075,717.
Example:
1 x 8,075,717 = 8,075,717
and
-1 x -8,075,717 = 8,075,717
Notice both answers equal 8,075,717
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,075,717 and divide it by 2:
8,075,717 ÷ 2 = 4,037,858.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,037,858.5 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 | 8,075,717 | |
| -1 | -8,075,717 |
Now, we try dividing 8,075,717 by 3:
8,075,717 ÷ 3 = 2,691,905.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,691,905.6667 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 | 8,075,717 | |
| -1 | -8,075,717 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,075,717 ÷ 4 = 2,018,929.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,018,929.25 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 | 8,075,717 | |
| -1 | 8,075,717 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 29 | 31 | 377 | 403 | 691 | 899 | 8,983 | 11,687 | 20,039 | 21,421 | 260,507 | 278,473 | 621,209 | 8,075,717 |
| -1 | -13 | -29 | -31 | -377 | -403 | -691 | -899 | -8,983 | -11,687 | -20,039 | -21,421 | -260,507 | -278,473 | -621,209 | -8,075,717 |
