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 4,262,755, 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 | 4,262,755 | |
| -1 | -4,262,755 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,262,755.
Example:
1 x 4,262,755 = 4,262,755
and
-1 x -4,262,755 = 4,262,755
Notice both answers equal 4,262,755
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,262,755 and divide it by 2:
4,262,755 ÷ 2 = 2,131,377.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,131,377.5 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 | 4,262,755 | |
| -1 | -4,262,755 |
Now, we try dividing 4,262,755 by 3:
4,262,755 ÷ 3 = 1,420,918.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,420,918.3333 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 | 4,262,755 | |
| -1 | -4,262,755 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,262,755 ÷ 4 = 1,065,688.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,065,688.75 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 | 4,262,755 | |
| -1 | 4,262,755 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 49 | 127 | 137 | 245 | 635 | 685 | 889 | 959 | 4,445 | 4,795 | 6,223 | 6,713 | 17,399 | 31,115 | 33,565 | 86,995 | 121,793 | 608,965 | 852,551 | 4,262,755 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -49 | -127 | -137 | -245 | -635 | -685 | -889 | -959 | -4,445 | -4,795 | -6,223 | -6,713 | -17,399 | -31,115 | -33,565 | -86,995 | -121,793 | -608,965 | -852,551 | -4,262,755 |
