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 4,112,455, 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 | 4,112,455 | |
| -1 | -4,112,455 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,112,455.
Example:
1 x 4,112,455 = 4,112,455
and
-1 x -4,112,455 = 4,112,455
Notice both answers equal 4,112,455
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,112,455 and divide it by 2:
4,112,455 ÷ 2 = 2,056,227.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,056,227.5 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 | 4,112,455 | |
| -1 | -4,112,455 |
Now, we try dividing 4,112,455 by 3:
4,112,455 ÷ 3 = 1,370,818.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,370,818.3333 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 | 4,112,455 | |
| -1 | -4,112,455 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,112,455 ÷ 4 = 1,028,113.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,028,113.75 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 | 4,112,455 | |
| -1 | 4,112,455 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 73 | 95 | 365 | 593 | 1,387 | 2,965 | 6,935 | 11,267 | 43,289 | 56,335 | 216,445 | 822,491 | 4,112,455 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -73 | -95 | -365 | -593 | -1,387 | -2,965 | -6,935 | -11,267 | -43,289 | -56,335 | -216,445 | -822,491 | -4,112,455 |
