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 4,114,045, 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 | 4,114,045 | |
| -1 | -4,114,045 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,114,045.
Example:
1 x 4,114,045 = 4,114,045
and
-1 x -4,114,045 = 4,114,045
Notice both answers equal 4,114,045
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,114,045 and divide it by 2:
4,114,045 ÷ 2 = 2,057,022.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,057,022.5 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 | 4,114,045 | |
| -1 | -4,114,045 |
Now, we try dividing 4,114,045 by 3:
4,114,045 ÷ 3 = 1,371,348.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,371,348.3333 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 | 4,114,045 | |
| -1 | -4,114,045 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,114,045 ÷ 4 = 1,028,511.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,028,511.25 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 | 4,114,045 | |
| -1 | 4,114,045 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 167 | 379 | 835 | 1,895 | 2,171 | 4,927 | 10,855 | 24,635 | 63,293 | 316,465 | 822,809 | 4,114,045 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -167 | -379 | -835 | -1,895 | -2,171 | -4,927 | -10,855 | -24,635 | -63,293 | -316,465 | -822,809 | -4,114,045 |
