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 3,676,127, 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 | 3,676,127 | |
| -1 | -3,676,127 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,676,127.
Example:
1 x 3,676,127 = 3,676,127
and
-1 x -3,676,127 = 3,676,127
Notice both answers equal 3,676,127
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,676,127 and divide it by 2:
3,676,127 ÷ 2 = 1,838,063.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,838,063.5 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 | 3,676,127 | |
| -1 | -3,676,127 |
Now, we try dividing 3,676,127 by 3:
3,676,127 ÷ 3 = 1,225,375.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,225,375.6667 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 | 3,676,127 | |
| -1 | -3,676,127 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,676,127 ÷ 4 = 919,031.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 919,031.75 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 | 3,676,127 | |
| -1 | 3,676,127 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 29 | 49 | 91 | 199 | 203 | 377 | 637 | 1,393 | 1,421 | 2,587 | 2,639 | 5,771 | 9,751 | 18,109 | 18,473 | 40,397 | 75,023 | 126,763 | 282,779 | 525,161 | 3,676,127 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -29 | -49 | -91 | -199 | -203 | -377 | -637 | -1,393 | -1,421 | -2,587 | -2,639 | -5,771 | -9,751 | -18,109 | -18,473 | -40,397 | -75,023 | -126,763 | -282,779 | -525,161 | -3,676,127 |
