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 4,496,255, 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 | 4,496,255 | |
| -1 | -4,496,255 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,496,255.
Example:
1 x 4,496,255 = 4,496,255
and
-1 x -4,496,255 = 4,496,255
Notice both answers equal 4,496,255
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,496,255 and divide it by 2:
4,496,255 ÷ 2 = 2,248,127.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,248,127.5 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 | 4,496,255 | |
| -1 | -4,496,255 |
Now, we try dividing 4,496,255 by 3:
4,496,255 ÷ 3 = 1,498,751.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,498,751.6667 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 | 4,496,255 | |
| -1 | -4,496,255 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,496,255 ÷ 4 = 1,124,063.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,124,063.75 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 | 4,496,255 | |
| -1 | 4,496,255 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 47 | 53 | 95 | 235 | 265 | 361 | 893 | 1,007 | 1,805 | 2,491 | 4,465 | 5,035 | 12,455 | 16,967 | 19,133 | 47,329 | 84,835 | 95,665 | 236,645 | 899,251 | 4,496,255 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -47 | -53 | -95 | -235 | -265 | -361 | -893 | -1,007 | -1,805 | -2,491 | -4,465 | -5,035 | -12,455 | -16,967 | -19,133 | -47,329 | -84,835 | -95,665 | -236,645 | -899,251 | -4,496,255 |
