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 4,665,545, 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 | 4,665,545 | |
| -1 | -4,665,545 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,665,545.
Example:
1 x 4,665,545 = 4,665,545
and
-1 x -4,665,545 = 4,665,545
Notice both answers equal 4,665,545
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,665,545 and divide it by 2:
4,665,545 ÷ 2 = 2,332,772.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,332,772.5 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 | 4,665,545 | |
| -1 | -4,665,545 |
Now, we try dividing 4,665,545 by 3:
4,665,545 ÷ 3 = 1,555,181.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,555,181.6667 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 | 4,665,545 | |
| -1 | -4,665,545 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,665,545 ÷ 4 = 1,166,386.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,166,386.25 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 | 4,665,545 | |
| -1 | 4,665,545 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 67 | 95 | 335 | 733 | 1,273 | 3,665 | 6,365 | 13,927 | 49,111 | 69,635 | 245,555 | 933,109 | 4,665,545 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -67 | -95 | -335 | -733 | -1,273 | -3,665 | -6,365 | -13,927 | -49,111 | -69,635 | -245,555 | -933,109 | -4,665,545 |
