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 3,758,275, 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 | 3,758,275 | |
| -1 | -3,758,275 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,758,275.
Example:
1 x 3,758,275 = 3,758,275
and
-1 x -3,758,275 = 3,758,275
Notice both answers equal 3,758,275
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,758,275 and divide it by 2:
3,758,275 ÷ 2 = 1,879,137.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,879,137.5 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 | 3,758,275 | |
| -1 | -3,758,275 |
Now, we try dividing 3,758,275 by 3:
3,758,275 ÷ 3 = 1,252,758.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,252,758.3333 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 | 3,758,275 | |
| -1 | -3,758,275 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,758,275 ÷ 4 = 939,568.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 939,568.75 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 | 3,758,275 | |
| -1 | 3,758,275 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 25 | 37 | 85 | 185 | 239 | 425 | 629 | 925 | 1,195 | 3,145 | 4,063 | 5,975 | 8,843 | 15,725 | 20,315 | 44,215 | 101,575 | 150,331 | 221,075 | 751,655 | 3,758,275 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -25 | -37 | -85 | -185 | -239 | -425 | -629 | -925 | -1,195 | -3,145 | -4,063 | -5,975 | -8,843 | -15,725 | -20,315 | -44,215 | -101,575 | -150,331 | -221,075 | -751,655 | -3,758,275 |
