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 4,077,733, 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 | 4,077,733 | |
| -1 | -4,077,733 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,077,733.
Example:
1 x 4,077,733 = 4,077,733
and
-1 x -4,077,733 = 4,077,733
Notice both answers equal 4,077,733
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,077,733 and divide it by 2:
4,077,733 ÷ 2 = 2,038,866.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,038,866.5 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 | 4,077,733 | |
| -1 | -4,077,733 |
Now, we try dividing 4,077,733 by 3:
4,077,733 ÷ 3 = 1,359,244.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,359,244.3333 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 | 4,077,733 | |
| -1 | -4,077,733 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,077,733 ÷ 4 = 1,019,433.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,019,433.25 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 | 4,077,733 | |
| -1 | 4,077,733 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 37 | 43 | 233 | 407 | 473 | 1,591 | 2,563 | 8,621 | 10,019 | 17,501 | 94,831 | 110,209 | 370,703 | 4,077,733 |
| -1 | -11 | -37 | -43 | -233 | -407 | -473 | -1,591 | -2,563 | -8,621 | -10,019 | -17,501 | -94,831 | -110,209 | -370,703 | -4,077,733 |
