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 4,444,685, 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 | 4,444,685 | |
| -1 | -4,444,685 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,444,685.
Example:
1 x 4,444,685 = 4,444,685
and
-1 x -4,444,685 = 4,444,685
Notice both answers equal 4,444,685
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,444,685 and divide it by 2:
4,444,685 ÷ 2 = 2,222,342.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,222,342.5 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 | 4,444,685 | |
| -1 | -4,444,685 |
Now, we try dividing 4,444,685 by 3:
4,444,685 ÷ 3 = 1,481,561.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,481,561.6667 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 | 4,444,685 | |
| -1 | -4,444,685 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,444,685 ÷ 4 = 1,111,171.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,111,171.25 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 | 4,444,685 | |
| -1 | 4,444,685 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 29 | 35 | 145 | 151 | 203 | 755 | 841 | 1,015 | 1,057 | 4,205 | 4,379 | 5,285 | 5,887 | 21,895 | 29,435 | 30,653 | 126,991 | 153,265 | 634,955 | 888,937 | 4,444,685 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -29 | -35 | -145 | -151 | -203 | -755 | -841 | -1,015 | -1,057 | -4,205 | -4,379 | -5,285 | -5,887 | -21,895 | -29,435 | -30,653 | -126,991 | -153,265 | -634,955 | -888,937 | -4,444,685 |
