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 4,167,631, 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 | 4,167,631 | |
| -1 | -4,167,631 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,167,631.
Example:
1 x 4,167,631 = 4,167,631
and
-1 x -4,167,631 = 4,167,631
Notice both answers equal 4,167,631
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,167,631 and divide it by 2:
4,167,631 ÷ 2 = 2,083,815.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,083,815.5 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 | 4,167,631 | |
| -1 | -4,167,631 |
Now, we try dividing 4,167,631 by 3:
4,167,631 ÷ 3 = 1,389,210.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,389,210.3333 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 | 4,167,631 | |
| -1 | -4,167,631 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,167,631 ÷ 4 = 1,041,907.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,041,907.75 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 | 4,167,631 | |
| -1 | 4,167,631 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 19 | 47 | 247 | 359 | 611 | 893 | 4,667 | 6,821 | 11,609 | 16,873 | 88,673 | 219,349 | 320,587 | 4,167,631 |
| -1 | -13 | -19 | -47 | -247 | -359 | -611 | -893 | -4,667 | -6,821 | -11,609 | -16,873 | -88,673 | -219,349 | -320,587 | -4,167,631 |
