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 4,374,461, 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 | 4,374,461 | |
| -1 | -4,374,461 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,374,461.
Example:
1 x 4,374,461 = 4,374,461
and
-1 x -4,374,461 = 4,374,461
Notice both answers equal 4,374,461
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,374,461 and divide it by 2:
4,374,461 ÷ 2 = 2,187,230.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,187,230.5 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 | 4,374,461 | |
| -1 | -4,374,461 |
Now, we try dividing 4,374,461 by 3:
4,374,461 ÷ 3 = 1,458,153.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,458,153.6667 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 | 4,374,461 | |
| -1 | -4,374,461 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,374,461 ÷ 4 = 1,093,615.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,093,615.25 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 | 4,374,461 | |
| -1 | 4,374,461 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 53 | 91 | 371 | 689 | 907 | 4,823 | 6,349 | 11,791 | 48,071 | 82,537 | 336,497 | 624,923 | 4,374,461 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -53 | -91 | -371 | -689 | -907 | -4,823 | -6,349 | -11,791 | -48,071 | -82,537 | -336,497 | -624,923 | -4,374,461 |
