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 4,180,057, 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 | 4,180,057 | |
| -1 | -4,180,057 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,180,057.
Example:
1 x 4,180,057 = 4,180,057
and
-1 x -4,180,057 = 4,180,057
Notice both answers equal 4,180,057
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,180,057 and divide it by 2:
4,180,057 ÷ 2 = 2,090,028.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,090,028.5 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 | 4,180,057 | |
| -1 | -4,180,057 |
Now, we try dividing 4,180,057 by 3:
4,180,057 ÷ 3 = 1,393,352.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,393,352.3333 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 | 4,180,057 | |
| -1 | -4,180,057 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,180,057 ÷ 4 = 1,045,014.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,045,014.25 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 | 4,180,057 | |
| -1 | 4,180,057 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 53 | 133 | 371 | 593 | 1,007 | 4,151 | 7,049 | 11,267 | 31,429 | 78,869 | 220,003 | 597,151 | 4,180,057 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -53 | -133 | -371 | -593 | -1,007 | -4,151 | -7,049 | -11,267 | -31,429 | -78,869 | -220,003 | -597,151 | -4,180,057 |
