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 3,760,393, 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 | 3,760,393 | |
| -1 | -3,760,393 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,760,393.
Example:
1 x 3,760,393 = 3,760,393
and
-1 x -3,760,393 = 3,760,393
Notice both answers equal 3,760,393
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,760,393 and divide it by 2:
3,760,393 ÷ 2 = 1,880,196.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,880,196.5 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 | 3,760,393 | |
| -1 | -3,760,393 |
Now, we try dividing 3,760,393 by 3:
3,760,393 ÷ 3 = 1,253,464.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,253,464.3333 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 | 3,760,393 | |
| -1 | -3,760,393 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,760,393 ÷ 4 = 940,098.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 940,098.25 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 | 3,760,393 | |
| -1 | 3,760,393 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 31 | 43 | 91 | 217 | 301 | 403 | 559 | 961 | 1,333 | 2,821 | 3,913 | 6,727 | 9,331 | 12,493 | 17,329 | 41,323 | 87,451 | 121,303 | 289,261 | 537,199 | 3,760,393 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -31 | -43 | -91 | -217 | -301 | -403 | -559 | -961 | -1,333 | -2,821 | -3,913 | -6,727 | -9,331 | -12,493 | -17,329 | -41,323 | -87,451 | -121,303 | -289,261 | -537,199 | -3,760,393 |
