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 11,422,495, 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 | 11,422,495 | |
| -1 | -11,422,495 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 11,422,495.
Example:
1 x 11,422,495 = 11,422,495
and
-1 x -11,422,495 = 11,422,495
Notice both answers equal 11,422,495
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 11,422,495 and divide it by 2:
11,422,495 ÷ 2 = 5,711,247.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,711,247.5 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 | 11,422,495 | |
| -1 | -11,422,495 |
Now, we try dividing 11,422,495 by 3:
11,422,495 ÷ 3 = 3,807,498.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,807,498.3333 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 | 11,422,495 | |
| -1 | -11,422,495 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
11,422,495 ÷ 4 = 2,855,623.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,855,623.75 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 | 11,422,495 | |
| -1 | 11,422,495 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 67 | 335 | 469 | 2,345 | 4,871 | 24,355 | 34,097 | 170,485 | 326,357 | 1,631,785 | 2,284,499 | 11,422,495 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -67 | -335 | -469 | -2,345 | -4,871 | -24,355 | -34,097 | -170,485 | -326,357 | -1,631,785 | -2,284,499 | -11,422,495 |
