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 4,534,535, 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 | 4,534,535 | |
| -1 | -4,534,535 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,534,535.
Example:
1 x 4,534,535 = 4,534,535
and
-1 x -4,534,535 = 4,534,535
Notice both answers equal 4,534,535
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,534,535 and divide it by 2:
4,534,535 ÷ 2 = 2,267,267.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,267,267.5 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 | 4,534,535 | |
| -1 | -4,534,535 |
Now, we try dividing 4,534,535 by 3:
4,534,535 ÷ 3 = 1,511,511.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,511,511.6667 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 | 4,534,535 | |
| -1 | -4,534,535 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,534,535 ÷ 4 = 1,133,633.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,133,633.75 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 | 4,534,535 | |
| -1 | 4,534,535 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 37 | 127 | 185 | 193 | 635 | 965 | 4,699 | 7,141 | 23,495 | 24,511 | 35,705 | 122,555 | 906,907 | 4,534,535 |
| -1 | -5 | -37 | -127 | -185 | -193 | -635 | -965 | -4,699 | -7,141 | -23,495 | -24,511 | -35,705 | -122,555 | -906,907 | -4,534,535 |
