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 8,078,681, 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 | 8,078,681 | |
| -1 | -8,078,681 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,078,681.
Example:
1 x 8,078,681 = 8,078,681
and
-1 x -8,078,681 = 8,078,681
Notice both answers equal 8,078,681
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,078,681 and divide it by 2:
8,078,681 ÷ 2 = 4,039,340.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,039,340.5 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 | 8,078,681 | |
| -1 | -8,078,681 |
Now, we try dividing 8,078,681 by 3:
8,078,681 ÷ 3 = 2,692,893.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,692,893.6667 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 | 8,078,681 | |
| -1 | -8,078,681 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,078,681 ÷ 4 = 2,019,670.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,019,670.25 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 | 8,078,681 | |
| -1 | 8,078,681 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 23 | 41 | 299 | 533 | 659 | 943 | 8,567 | 12,259 | 15,157 | 27,019 | 197,041 | 351,247 | 621,437 | 8,078,681 |
| -1 | -13 | -23 | -41 | -299 | -533 | -659 | -943 | -8,567 | -12,259 | -15,157 | -27,019 | -197,041 | -351,247 | -621,437 | -8,078,681 |
