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 4,563,505, 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 | 4,563,505 | |
| -1 | -4,563,505 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,563,505.
Example:
1 x 4,563,505 = 4,563,505
and
-1 x -4,563,505 = 4,563,505
Notice both answers equal 4,563,505
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,563,505 and divide it by 2:
4,563,505 ÷ 2 = 2,281,752.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,281,752.5 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 | 4,563,505 | |
| -1 | -4,563,505 |
Now, we try dividing 4,563,505 by 3:
4,563,505 ÷ 3 = 1,521,168.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,521,168.3333 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 | 4,563,505 | |
| -1 | -4,563,505 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,563,505 ÷ 4 = 1,140,876.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,140,876.25 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 | 4,563,505 | |
| -1 | 4,563,505 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 41 | 113 | 197 | 205 | 565 | 985 | 4,633 | 8,077 | 22,261 | 23,165 | 40,385 | 111,305 | 912,701 | 4,563,505 |
| -1 | -5 | -41 | -113 | -197 | -205 | -565 | -985 | -4,633 | -8,077 | -22,261 | -23,165 | -40,385 | -111,305 | -912,701 | -4,563,505 |
