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 3,554,045, 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 | 3,554,045 | |
| -1 | -3,554,045 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,554,045.
Example:
1 x 3,554,045 = 3,554,045
and
-1 x -3,554,045 = 3,554,045
Notice both answers equal 3,554,045
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,554,045 and divide it by 2:
3,554,045 ÷ 2 = 1,777,022.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,777,022.5 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 | 3,554,045 | |
| -1 | -3,554,045 |
Now, we try dividing 3,554,045 by 3:
3,554,045 ÷ 3 = 1,184,681.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,184,681.6667 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 | 3,554,045 | |
| -1 | -3,554,045 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,554,045 ÷ 4 = 888,511.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 888,511.25 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 | 3,554,045 | |
| -1 | 3,554,045 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 19 | 55 | 95 | 179 | 209 | 361 | 895 | 1,045 | 1,805 | 1,969 | 3,401 | 3,971 | 9,845 | 17,005 | 19,855 | 37,411 | 64,619 | 187,055 | 323,095 | 710,809 | 3,554,045 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -19 | -55 | -95 | -179 | -209 | -361 | -895 | -1,045 | -1,805 | -1,969 | -3,401 | -3,971 | -9,845 | -17,005 | -19,855 | -37,411 | -64,619 | -187,055 | -323,095 | -710,809 | -3,554,045 |
