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 4,718,095, 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 | 4,718,095 | |
| -1 | -4,718,095 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,718,095.
Example:
1 x 4,718,095 = 4,718,095
and
-1 x -4,718,095 = 4,718,095
Notice both answers equal 4,718,095
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,718,095 and divide it by 2:
4,718,095 ÷ 2 = 2,359,047.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,359,047.5 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 | 4,718,095 | |
| -1 | -4,718,095 |
Now, we try dividing 4,718,095 by 3:
4,718,095 ÷ 3 = 1,572,698.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,572,698.3333 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 | 4,718,095 | |
| -1 | -4,718,095 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,718,095 ÷ 4 = 1,179,523.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,179,523.75 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 | 4,718,095 | |
| -1 | 4,718,095 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 47 | 85 | 235 | 799 | 1,181 | 3,995 | 5,905 | 20,077 | 55,507 | 100,385 | 277,535 | 943,619 | 4,718,095 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -47 | -85 | -235 | -799 | -1,181 | -3,995 | -5,905 | -20,077 | -55,507 | -100,385 | -277,535 | -943,619 | -4,718,095 |
