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 4,766,635, 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 | 4,766,635 | |
| -1 | -4,766,635 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,766,635.
Example:
1 x 4,766,635 = 4,766,635
and
-1 x -4,766,635 = 4,766,635
Notice both answers equal 4,766,635
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,766,635 and divide it by 2:
4,766,635 ÷ 2 = 2,383,317.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,383,317.5 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 | 4,766,635 | |
| -1 | -4,766,635 |
Now, we try dividing 4,766,635 by 3:
4,766,635 ÷ 3 = 1,588,878.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,588,878.3333 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 | 4,766,635 | |
| -1 | -4,766,635 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,766,635 ÷ 4 = 1,191,658.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,191,658.75 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 | 4,766,635 | |
| -1 | 4,766,635 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 115 | 181 | 229 | 905 | 1,145 | 4,163 | 5,267 | 20,815 | 26,335 | 41,449 | 207,245 | 953,327 | 4,766,635 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -115 | -181 | -229 | -905 | -1,145 | -4,163 | -5,267 | -20,815 | -26,335 | -41,449 | -207,245 | -953,327 | -4,766,635 |
