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 4,557,875, 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 | 4,557,875 | |
| -1 | -4,557,875 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,557,875.
Example:
1 x 4,557,875 = 4,557,875
and
-1 x -4,557,875 = 4,557,875
Notice both answers equal 4,557,875
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,557,875 and divide it by 2:
4,557,875 ÷ 2 = 2,278,937.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,278,937.5 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 | 4,557,875 | |
| -1 | -4,557,875 |
Now, we try dividing 4,557,875 by 3:
4,557,875 ÷ 3 = 1,519,291.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,519,291.6667 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 | 4,557,875 | |
| -1 | -4,557,875 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,557,875 ÷ 4 = 1,139,468.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,139,468.75 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 | 4,557,875 | |
| -1 | 4,557,875 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 125 | 175 | 875 | 5,209 | 26,045 | 36,463 | 130,225 | 182,315 | 651,125 | 911,575 | 4,557,875 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -125 | -175 | -875 | -5,209 | -26,045 | -36,463 | -130,225 | -182,315 | -651,125 | -911,575 | -4,557,875 |
