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 9,375,883, 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 | 9,375,883 | |
| -1 | -9,375,883 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,375,883.
Example:
1 x 9,375,883 = 9,375,883
and
-1 x -9,375,883 = 9,375,883
Notice both answers equal 9,375,883
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,375,883 and divide it by 2:
9,375,883 ÷ 2 = 4,687,941.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,687,941.5 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 | 9,375,883 | |
| -1 | -9,375,883 |
Now, we try dividing 9,375,883 by 3:
9,375,883 ÷ 3 = 3,125,294.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,125,294.3333 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 | 9,375,883 | |
| -1 | -9,375,883 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,375,883 ÷ 4 = 2,343,970.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,343,970.75 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 | 9,375,883 | |
| -1 | 9,375,883 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 61 | 89 | 157 | 671 | 979 | 1,727 | 5,429 | 9,577 | 13,973 | 59,719 | 105,347 | 153,703 | 852,353 | 9,375,883 |
| -1 | -11 | -61 | -89 | -157 | -671 | -979 | -1,727 | -5,429 | -9,577 | -13,973 | -59,719 | -105,347 | -153,703 | -852,353 | -9,375,883 |
