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 9,206,969, 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 | 9,206,969 | |
| -1 | -9,206,969 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,206,969.
Example:
1 x 9,206,969 = 9,206,969
and
-1 x -9,206,969 = 9,206,969
Notice both answers equal 9,206,969
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,206,969 and divide it by 2:
9,206,969 ÷ 2 = 4,603,484.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,603,484.5 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 | 9,206,969 | |
| -1 | -9,206,969 |
Now, we try dividing 9,206,969 by 3:
9,206,969 ÷ 3 = 3,068,989.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,068,989.6667 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 | 9,206,969 | |
| -1 | -9,206,969 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,206,969 ÷ 4 = 2,301,742.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,301,742.25 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 | 9,206,969 | |
| -1 | 9,206,969 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 23 | 31 | 37 | 349 | 713 | 851 | 1,147 | 8,027 | 10,819 | 12,913 | 26,381 | 248,837 | 296,999 | 400,303 | 9,206,969 |
| -1 | -23 | -31 | -37 | -349 | -713 | -851 | -1,147 | -8,027 | -10,819 | -12,913 | -26,381 | -248,837 | -296,999 | -400,303 | -9,206,969 |
