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 9,626,027, 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 | 9,626,027 | |
| -1 | -9,626,027 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,626,027.
Example:
1 x 9,626,027 = 9,626,027
and
-1 x -9,626,027 = 9,626,027
Notice both answers equal 9,626,027
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,626,027 and divide it by 2:
9,626,027 ÷ 2 = 4,813,013.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,813,013.5 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 | 9,626,027 | |
| -1 | -9,626,027 |
Now, we try dividing 9,626,027 by 3:
9,626,027 ÷ 3 = 3,208,675.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,208,675.6667 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 | 9,626,027 | |
| -1 | -9,626,027 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,626,027 ÷ 4 = 2,406,506.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,406,506.75 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 | 9,626,027 | |
| -1 | 9,626,027 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 31 | 59 | 277 | 589 | 1,121 | 1,829 | 5,263 | 8,587 | 16,343 | 34,751 | 163,153 | 310,517 | 506,633 | 9,626,027 |
| -1 | -19 | -31 | -59 | -277 | -589 | -1,121 | -1,829 | -5,263 | -8,587 | -16,343 | -34,751 | -163,153 | -310,517 | -506,633 | -9,626,027 |
