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 4,826,195, 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 | 4,826,195 | |
| -1 | -4,826,195 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,826,195.
Example:
1 x 4,826,195 = 4,826,195
and
-1 x -4,826,195 = 4,826,195
Notice both answers equal 4,826,195
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,826,195 and divide it by 2:
4,826,195 ÷ 2 = 2,413,097.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,413,097.5 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 | 4,826,195 | |
| -1 | -4,826,195 |
Now, we try dividing 4,826,195 by 3:
4,826,195 ÷ 3 = 1,608,731.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,608,731.6667 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 | 4,826,195 | |
| -1 | -4,826,195 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,826,195 ÷ 4 = 1,206,548.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,206,548.75 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 | 4,826,195 | |
| -1 | 4,826,195 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 47 | 55 | 235 | 517 | 1,867 | 2,585 | 9,335 | 20,537 | 87,749 | 102,685 | 438,745 | 965,239 | 4,826,195 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -47 | -55 | -235 | -517 | -1,867 | -2,585 | -9,335 | -20,537 | -87,749 | -102,685 | -438,745 | -965,239 | -4,826,195 |
