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 4,382,135, 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 | 4,382,135 | |
| -1 | -4,382,135 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,382,135.
Example:
1 x 4,382,135 = 4,382,135
and
-1 x -4,382,135 = 4,382,135
Notice both answers equal 4,382,135
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,382,135 and divide it by 2:
4,382,135 ÷ 2 = 2,191,067.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,191,067.5 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 | 4,382,135 | |
| -1 | -4,382,135 |
Now, we try dividing 4,382,135 by 3:
4,382,135 ÷ 3 = 1,460,711.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,460,711.6667 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 | 4,382,135 | |
| -1 | -4,382,135 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,382,135 ÷ 4 = 1,095,533.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,095,533.75 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 | 4,382,135 | |
| -1 | 4,382,135 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 67 | 103 | 127 | 335 | 515 | 635 | 6,901 | 8,509 | 13,081 | 34,505 | 42,545 | 65,405 | 876,427 | 4,382,135 |
| -1 | -5 | -67 | -103 | -127 | -335 | -515 | -635 | -6,901 | -8,509 | -13,081 | -34,505 | -42,545 | -65,405 | -876,427 | -4,382,135 |
