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 8,353,751, 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 | 8,353,751 | |
| -1 | -8,353,751 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,353,751.
Example:
1 x 8,353,751 = 8,353,751
and
-1 x -8,353,751 = 8,353,751
Notice both answers equal 8,353,751
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,353,751 and divide it by 2:
8,353,751 ÷ 2 = 4,176,875.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,176,875.5 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 | 8,353,751 | |
| -1 | -8,353,751 |
Now, we try dividing 8,353,751 by 3:
8,353,751 ÷ 3 = 2,784,583.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,784,583.6667 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 | 8,353,751 | |
| -1 | -8,353,751 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,353,751 ÷ 4 = 2,088,437.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,088,437.75 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 | 8,353,751 | |
| -1 | 8,353,751 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 59 | 113 | 179 | 413 | 791 | 1,253 | 6,667 | 10,561 | 20,227 | 46,669 | 73,927 | 141,589 | 1,193,393 | 8,353,751 |
| -1 | -7 | -59 | -113 | -179 | -413 | -791 | -1,253 | -6,667 | -10,561 | -20,227 | -46,669 | -73,927 | -141,589 | -1,193,393 | -8,353,751 |
