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 4,533,419, 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 | 4,533,419 | |
| -1 | -4,533,419 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,533,419.
Example:
1 x 4,533,419 = 4,533,419
and
-1 x -4,533,419 = 4,533,419
Notice both answers equal 4,533,419
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,533,419 and divide it by 2:
4,533,419 ÷ 2 = 2,266,709.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,266,709.5 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 | 4,533,419 | |
| -1 | -4,533,419 |
Now, we try dividing 4,533,419 by 3:
4,533,419 ÷ 3 = 1,511,139.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,511,139.6667 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 | 4,533,419 | |
| -1 | -4,533,419 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,533,419 ÷ 4 = 1,133,354.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,133,354.75 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 | 4,533,419 | |
| -1 | 4,533,419 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 19 | 109 | 199 | 209 | 1,199 | 2,071 | 2,189 | 3,781 | 21,691 | 22,781 | 41,591 | 238,601 | 412,129 | 4,533,419 |
| -1 | -11 | -19 | -109 | -199 | -209 | -1,199 | -2,071 | -2,189 | -3,781 | -21,691 | -22,781 | -41,591 | -238,601 | -412,129 | -4,533,419 |
