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 4,399,967, 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 | 4,399,967 | |
| -1 | -4,399,967 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,399,967.
Example:
1 x 4,399,967 = 4,399,967
and
-1 x -4,399,967 = 4,399,967
Notice both answers equal 4,399,967
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,399,967 and divide it by 2:
4,399,967 ÷ 2 = 2,199,983.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,199,983.5 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 | 4,399,967 | |
| -1 | -4,399,967 |
Now, we try dividing 4,399,967 by 3:
4,399,967 ÷ 3 = 1,466,655.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,466,655.6667 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 | 4,399,967 | |
| -1 | -4,399,967 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,399,967 ÷ 4 = 1,099,991.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,099,991.75 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 | 4,399,967 | |
| -1 | 4,399,967 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 29 | 143 | 319 | 377 | 1,061 | 4,147 | 11,671 | 13,793 | 30,769 | 151,723 | 338,459 | 399,997 | 4,399,967 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -29 | -143 | -319 | -377 | -1,061 | -4,147 | -11,671 | -13,793 | -30,769 | -151,723 | -338,459 | -399,997 | -4,399,967 |
