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 4,637,605, 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 | 4,637,605 | |
| -1 | -4,637,605 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,637,605.
Example:
1 x 4,637,605 = 4,637,605
and
-1 x -4,637,605 = 4,637,605
Notice both answers equal 4,637,605
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,637,605 and divide it by 2:
4,637,605 ÷ 2 = 2,318,802.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,318,802.5 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 | 4,637,605 | |
| -1 | -4,637,605 |
Now, we try dividing 4,637,605 by 3:
4,637,605 ÷ 3 = 1,545,868.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,545,868.3333 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 | 4,637,605 | |
| -1 | -4,637,605 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,637,605 ÷ 4 = 1,159,401.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,159,401.25 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 | 4,637,605 | |
| -1 | 4,637,605 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 35 | 49 | 115 | 161 | 245 | 805 | 823 | 1,127 | 4,115 | 5,635 | 5,761 | 18,929 | 28,805 | 40,327 | 94,645 | 132,503 | 201,635 | 662,515 | 927,521 | 4,637,605 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -35 | -49 | -115 | -161 | -245 | -805 | -823 | -1,127 | -4,115 | -5,635 | -5,761 | -18,929 | -28,805 | -40,327 | -94,645 | -132,503 | -201,635 | -662,515 | -927,521 | -4,637,605 |
