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 4,110,685, 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 | 4,110,685 | |
| -1 | -4,110,685 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,110,685.
Example:
1 x 4,110,685 = 4,110,685
and
-1 x -4,110,685 = 4,110,685
Notice both answers equal 4,110,685
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,110,685 and divide it by 2:
4,110,685 ÷ 2 = 2,055,342.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,055,342.5 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 | 4,110,685 | |
| -1 | -4,110,685 |
Now, we try dividing 4,110,685 by 3:
4,110,685 ÷ 3 = 1,370,228.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,370,228.3333 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 | 4,110,685 | |
| -1 | -4,110,685 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,110,685 ÷ 4 = 1,027,671.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,027,671.25 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 | 4,110,685 | |
| -1 | 4,110,685 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 85 | 137 | 353 | 685 | 1,765 | 2,329 | 6,001 | 11,645 | 30,005 | 48,361 | 241,805 | 822,137 | 4,110,685 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -85 | -137 | -353 | -685 | -1,765 | -2,329 | -6,001 | -11,645 | -30,005 | -48,361 | -241,805 | -822,137 | -4,110,685 |
