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 8,228,077, 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 | 8,228,077 | |
| -1 | -8,228,077 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,228,077.
Example:
1 x 8,228,077 = 8,228,077
and
-1 x -8,228,077 = 8,228,077
Notice both answers equal 8,228,077
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,228,077 and divide it by 2:
8,228,077 ÷ 2 = 4,114,038.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,114,038.5 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 | 8,228,077 | |
| -1 | -8,228,077 |
Now, we try dividing 8,228,077 by 3:
8,228,077 ÷ 3 = 2,742,692.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,742,692.3333 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 | 8,228,077 | |
| -1 | -8,228,077 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,228,077 ÷ 4 = 2,057,019.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,057,019.25 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 | 8,228,077 | |
| -1 | 8,228,077 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 143 | 163 | 353 | 1,793 | 2,119 | 3,883 | 4,589 | 23,309 | 50,479 | 57,539 | 632,929 | 748,007 | 8,228,077 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -143 | -163 | -353 | -1,793 | -2,119 | -3,883 | -4,589 | -23,309 | -50,479 | -57,539 | -632,929 | -748,007 | -8,228,077 |
