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 4,438,865, 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 | 4,438,865 | |
| -1 | -4,438,865 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,438,865.
Example:
1 x 4,438,865 = 4,438,865
and
-1 x -4,438,865 = 4,438,865
Notice both answers equal 4,438,865
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,438,865 and divide it by 2:
4,438,865 ÷ 2 = 2,219,432.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,219,432.5 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 | 4,438,865 | |
| -1 | -4,438,865 |
Now, we try dividing 4,438,865 by 3:
4,438,865 ÷ 3 = 1,479,621.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,479,621.6667 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 | 4,438,865 | |
| -1 | -4,438,865 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,438,865 ÷ 4 = 1,109,716.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,109,716.25 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 | 4,438,865 | |
| -1 | 4,438,865 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 41 | 59 | 205 | 295 | 367 | 1,835 | 2,419 | 12,095 | 15,047 | 21,653 | 75,235 | 108,265 | 887,773 | 4,438,865 |
| -1 | -5 | -41 | -59 | -205 | -295 | -367 | -1,835 | -2,419 | -12,095 | -15,047 | -21,653 | -75,235 | -108,265 | -887,773 | -4,438,865 |
