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 3,604,315, 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 | 3,604,315 | |
| -1 | -3,604,315 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,604,315.
Example:
1 x 3,604,315 = 3,604,315
and
-1 x -3,604,315 = 3,604,315
Notice both answers equal 3,604,315
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,604,315 and divide it by 2:
3,604,315 ÷ 2 = 1,802,157.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,802,157.5 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 | 3,604,315 | |
| -1 | -3,604,315 |
Now, we try dividing 3,604,315 by 3:
3,604,315 ÷ 3 = 1,201,438.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,201,438.3333 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 | 3,604,315 | |
| -1 | -3,604,315 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,604,315 ÷ 4 = 901,078.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 901,078.75 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 | 3,604,315 | |
| -1 | 3,604,315 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 13 | 55 | 65 | 71 | 143 | 355 | 715 | 781 | 923 | 3,905 | 4,615 | 5,041 | 10,153 | 25,205 | 50,765 | 55,451 | 65,533 | 277,255 | 327,665 | 720,863 | 3,604,315 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -13 | -55 | -65 | -71 | -143 | -355 | -715 | -781 | -923 | -3,905 | -4,615 | -5,041 | -10,153 | -25,205 | -50,765 | -55,451 | -65,533 | -277,255 | -327,665 | -720,863 | -3,604,315 |
