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 4,177,283, 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 | 4,177,283 | |
| -1 | -4,177,283 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,177,283.
Example:
1 x 4,177,283 = 4,177,283
and
-1 x -4,177,283 = 4,177,283
Notice both answers equal 4,177,283
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,177,283 and divide it by 2:
4,177,283 ÷ 2 = 2,088,641.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,088,641.5 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 | 4,177,283 | |
| -1 | -4,177,283 |
Now, we try dividing 4,177,283 by 3:
4,177,283 ÷ 3 = 1,392,427.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,392,427.6667 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 | 4,177,283 | |
| -1 | -4,177,283 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,177,283 ÷ 4 = 1,044,320.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,044,320.75 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 | 4,177,283 | |
| -1 | 4,177,283 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 19 | 23 | 79 | 121 | 209 | 253 | 437 | 869 | 1,501 | 1,817 | 2,299 | 2,783 | 4,807 | 9,559 | 16,511 | 19,987 | 34,523 | 52,877 | 181,621 | 219,857 | 379,753 | 4,177,283 |
| -1 | -11 | -19 | -23 | -79 | -121 | -209 | -253 | -437 | -869 | -1,501 | -1,817 | -2,299 | -2,783 | -4,807 | -9,559 | -16,511 | -19,987 | -34,523 | -52,877 | -181,621 | -219,857 | -379,753 | -4,177,283 |
