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 4,436,275, 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 | 4,436,275 | |
| -1 | -4,436,275 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,436,275.
Example:
1 x 4,436,275 = 4,436,275
and
-1 x -4,436,275 = 4,436,275
Notice both answers equal 4,436,275
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,436,275 and divide it by 2:
4,436,275 ÷ 2 = 2,218,137.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,218,137.5 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 | 4,436,275 | |
| -1 | -4,436,275 |
Now, we try dividing 4,436,275 by 3:
4,436,275 ÷ 3 = 1,478,758.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,478,758.3333 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 | 4,436,275 | |
| -1 | -4,436,275 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,436,275 ÷ 4 = 1,109,068.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,109,068.75 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 | 4,436,275 | |
| -1 | 4,436,275 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 29 | 145 | 211 | 725 | 841 | 1,055 | 4,205 | 5,275 | 6,119 | 21,025 | 30,595 | 152,975 | 177,451 | 887,255 | 4,436,275 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -29 | -145 | -211 | -725 | -841 | -1,055 | -4,205 | -5,275 | -6,119 | -21,025 | -30,595 | -152,975 | -177,451 | -887,255 | -4,436,275 |
