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 2,465,575, 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 | 2,465,575 | |
| -1 | -2,465,575 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 2,465,575.
Example:
1 x 2,465,575 = 2,465,575
and
-1 x -2,465,575 = 2,465,575
Notice both answers equal 2,465,575
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 2,465,575 and divide it by 2:
2,465,575 ÷ 2 = 1,232,787.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,232,787.5 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 | 2,465,575 | |
| -1 | -2,465,575 |
Now, we try dividing 2,465,575 by 3:
2,465,575 ÷ 3 = 821,858.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 821,858.3333 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 | 2,465,575 | |
| -1 | -2,465,575 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
2,465,575 ÷ 4 = 616,393.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 616,393.75 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 | 2,465,575 | |
| -1 | 2,465,575 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 73 | 175 | 193 | 365 | 511 | 965 | 1,351 | 1,825 | 2,555 | 4,825 | 6,755 | 12,775 | 14,089 | 33,775 | 70,445 | 98,623 | 352,225 | 493,115 | 2,465,575 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -73 | -175 | -193 | -365 | -511 | -965 | -1,351 | -1,825 | -2,555 | -4,825 | -6,755 | -12,775 | -14,089 | -33,775 | -70,445 | -98,623 | -352,225 | -493,115 | -2,465,575 |
