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 9,410,471, 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 | 9,410,471 | |
| -1 | -9,410,471 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,410,471.
Example:
1 x 9,410,471 = 9,410,471
and
-1 x -9,410,471 = 9,410,471
Notice both answers equal 9,410,471
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,410,471 and divide it by 2:
9,410,471 ÷ 2 = 4,705,235.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,705,235.5 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 | 9,410,471 | |
| -1 | -9,410,471 |
Now, we try dividing 9,410,471 by 3:
9,410,471 ÷ 3 = 3,136,823.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,136,823.6667 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 | 9,410,471 | |
| -1 | -9,410,471 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,410,471 ÷ 4 = 2,352,617.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,352,617.75 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 | 9,410,471 | |
| -1 | 9,410,471 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 29 | 151 | 203 | 307 | 1,057 | 2,149 | 4,379 | 8,903 | 30,653 | 46,357 | 62,321 | 324,499 | 1,344,353 | 9,410,471 |
| -1 | -7 | -29 | -151 | -203 | -307 | -1,057 | -2,149 | -4,379 | -8,903 | -30,653 | -46,357 | -62,321 | -324,499 | -1,344,353 | -9,410,471 |
