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 4,451,605, 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 | 4,451,605 | |
| -1 | -4,451,605 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,451,605.
Example:
1 x 4,451,605 = 4,451,605
and
-1 x -4,451,605 = 4,451,605
Notice both answers equal 4,451,605
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,451,605 and divide it by 2:
4,451,605 ÷ 2 = 2,225,802.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,225,802.5 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 | 4,451,605 | |
| -1 | -4,451,605 |
Now, we try dividing 4,451,605 by 3:
4,451,605 ÷ 3 = 1,483,868.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,483,868.3333 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 | 4,451,605 | |
| -1 | -4,451,605 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,451,605 ÷ 4 = 1,112,901.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,112,901.25 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 | 4,451,605 | |
| -1 | 4,451,605 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 47 | 95 | 235 | 893 | 997 | 4,465 | 4,985 | 18,943 | 46,859 | 94,715 | 234,295 | 890,321 | 4,451,605 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -47 | -95 | -235 | -893 | -997 | -4,465 | -4,985 | -18,943 | -46,859 | -94,715 | -234,295 | -890,321 | -4,451,605 |
