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 4,694,125, 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 | 4,694,125 | |
| -1 | -4,694,125 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,694,125.
Example:
1 x 4,694,125 = 4,694,125
and
-1 x -4,694,125 = 4,694,125
Notice both answers equal 4,694,125
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,694,125 and divide it by 2:
4,694,125 ÷ 2 = 2,347,062.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,347,062.5 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 | 4,694,125 | |
| -1 | -4,694,125 |
Now, we try dividing 4,694,125 by 3:
4,694,125 ÷ 3 = 1,564,708.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,564,708.3333 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 | 4,694,125 | |
| -1 | -4,694,125 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,694,125 ÷ 4 = 1,173,531.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,173,531.25 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 | 4,694,125 | |
| -1 | 4,694,125 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 25 | 47 | 85 | 125 | 235 | 425 | 799 | 1,175 | 2,125 | 2,209 | 3,995 | 5,875 | 11,045 | 19,975 | 37,553 | 55,225 | 99,875 | 187,765 | 276,125 | 938,825 | 4,694,125 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -25 | -47 | -85 | -125 | -235 | -425 | -799 | -1,175 | -2,125 | -2,209 | -3,995 | -5,875 | -11,045 | -19,975 | -37,553 | -55,225 | -99,875 | -187,765 | -276,125 | -938,825 | -4,694,125 |
