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 4,775,881, 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 | 4,775,881 | |
| -1 | -4,775,881 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,775,881.
Example:
1 x 4,775,881 = 4,775,881
and
-1 x -4,775,881 = 4,775,881
Notice both answers equal 4,775,881
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,775,881 and divide it by 2:
4,775,881 ÷ 2 = 2,387,940.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,387,940.5 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 | 4,775,881 | |
| -1 | -4,775,881 |
Now, we try dividing 4,775,881 by 3:
4,775,881 ÷ 3 = 1,591,960.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,591,960.3333 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 | 4,775,881 | |
| -1 | -4,775,881 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,775,881 ÷ 4 = 1,193,970.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,193,970.25 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 | 4,775,881 | |
| -1 | 4,775,881 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 23 | 43 | 253 | 439 | 473 | 989 | 4,829 | 10,097 | 10,879 | 18,877 | 111,067 | 207,647 | 434,171 | 4,775,881 |
| -1 | -11 | -23 | -43 | -253 | -439 | -473 | -989 | -4,829 | -10,097 | -10,879 | -18,877 | -111,067 | -207,647 | -434,171 | -4,775,881 |
