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 3,763,307, 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 | 3,763,307 | |
| -1 | -3,763,307 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,763,307.
Example:
1 x 3,763,307 = 3,763,307
and
-1 x -3,763,307 = 3,763,307
Notice both answers equal 3,763,307
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,763,307 and divide it by 2:
3,763,307 ÷ 2 = 1,881,653.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,881,653.5 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 | 3,763,307 | |
| -1 | -3,763,307 |
Now, we try dividing 3,763,307 by 3:
3,763,307 ÷ 3 = 1,254,435.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,254,435.6667 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 | 3,763,307 | |
| -1 | -3,763,307 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,763,307 ÷ 4 = 940,826.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 940,826.75 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 | 3,763,307 | |
| -1 | 3,763,307 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 17 | 31 | 37 | 193 | 527 | 629 | 1,147 | 3,281 | 5,983 | 7,141 | 19,499 | 101,711 | 121,397 | 221,371 | 3,763,307 |
| -1 | -17 | -31 | -37 | -193 | -527 | -629 | -1,147 | -3,281 | -5,983 | -7,141 | -19,499 | -101,711 | -121,397 | -221,371 | -3,763,307 |
