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 4,680,335, 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 | 4,680,335 | |
| -1 | -4,680,335 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,680,335.
Example:
1 x 4,680,335 = 4,680,335
and
-1 x -4,680,335 = 4,680,335
Notice both answers equal 4,680,335
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,680,335 and divide it by 2:
4,680,335 ÷ 2 = 2,340,167.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,340,167.5 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 | 4,680,335 | |
| -1 | -4,680,335 |
Now, we try dividing 4,680,335 by 3:
4,680,335 ÷ 3 = 1,560,111.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,560,111.6667 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 | 4,680,335 | |
| -1 | -4,680,335 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,680,335 ÷ 4 = 1,170,083.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,170,083.75 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 | 4,680,335 | |
| -1 | 4,680,335 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 43 | 55 | 215 | 473 | 1,979 | 2,365 | 9,895 | 21,769 | 85,097 | 108,845 | 425,485 | 936,067 | 4,680,335 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -43 | -55 | -215 | -473 | -1,979 | -2,365 | -9,895 | -21,769 | -85,097 | -108,845 | -425,485 | -936,067 | -4,680,335 |
