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 4,316,039, 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 | 4,316,039 | |
| -1 | -4,316,039 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,316,039.
Example:
1 x 4,316,039 = 4,316,039
and
-1 x -4,316,039 = 4,316,039
Notice both answers equal 4,316,039
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,316,039 and divide it by 2:
4,316,039 ÷ 2 = 2,158,019.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,158,019.5 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 | 4,316,039 | |
| -1 | -4,316,039 |
Now, we try dividing 4,316,039 by 3:
4,316,039 ÷ 3 = 1,438,679.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,438,679.6667 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 | 4,316,039 | |
| -1 | -4,316,039 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,316,039 ÷ 4 = 1,079,009.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,079,009.75 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 | 4,316,039 | |
| -1 | 4,316,039 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 43 | 91 | 301 | 559 | 1,103 | 3,913 | 7,721 | 14,339 | 47,429 | 100,373 | 332,003 | 616,577 | 4,316,039 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -43 | -91 | -301 | -559 | -1,103 | -3,913 | -7,721 | -14,339 | -47,429 | -100,373 | -332,003 | -616,577 | -4,316,039 |
