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 8,325,187, 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 | 8,325,187 | |
| -1 | -8,325,187 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,325,187.
Example:
1 x 8,325,187 = 8,325,187
and
-1 x -8,325,187 = 8,325,187
Notice both answers equal 8,325,187
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,325,187 and divide it by 2:
8,325,187 ÷ 2 = 4,162,593.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,162,593.5 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 | 8,325,187 | |
| -1 | -8,325,187 |
Now, we try dividing 8,325,187 by 3:
8,325,187 ÷ 3 = 2,775,062.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,775,062.3333 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 | 8,325,187 | |
| -1 | -8,325,187 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,325,187 ÷ 4 = 2,081,296.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,081,296.75 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 | 8,325,187 | |
| -1 | 8,325,187 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 43 | 53 | 281 | 559 | 689 | 2,279 | 3,653 | 12,083 | 14,893 | 29,627 | 157,079 | 193,609 | 640,399 | 8,325,187 |
| -1 | -13 | -43 | -53 | -281 | -559 | -689 | -2,279 | -3,653 | -12,083 | -14,893 | -29,627 | -157,079 | -193,609 | -640,399 | -8,325,187 |
