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 4,463,129, 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 | 4,463,129 | |
| -1 | -4,463,129 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,463,129.
Example:
1 x 4,463,129 = 4,463,129
and
-1 x -4,463,129 = 4,463,129
Notice both answers equal 4,463,129
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,463,129 and divide it by 2:
4,463,129 ÷ 2 = 2,231,564.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,231,564.5 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 | 4,463,129 | |
| -1 | -4,463,129 |
Now, we try dividing 4,463,129 by 3:
4,463,129 ÷ 3 = 1,487,709.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,487,709.6667 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 | 4,463,129 | |
| -1 | -4,463,129 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,463,129 ÷ 4 = 1,115,782.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,115,782.25 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 | 4,463,129 | |
| -1 | 4,463,129 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 17 | 29 | 187 | 319 | 493 | 823 | 5,423 | 9,053 | 13,991 | 23,867 | 153,901 | 262,537 | 405,739 | 4,463,129 |
| -1 | -11 | -17 | -29 | -187 | -319 | -493 | -823 | -5,423 | -9,053 | -13,991 | -23,867 | -153,901 | -262,537 | -405,739 | -4,463,129 |
