Factors from the present value of a lump sum table for:

i = 10%
n = 6       n = 7       n = 8       n = 9       n = 10 
0.565       0.513       0.467       0.424       0.385


Factors from the present value of an annuity table for:

i = 10%
n = 6       n = 7       n = 8       n = 9       n = 10
4.355       4.868       5.335       5.759       6.500
