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 4,843,355, 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 | 4,843,355 | |
| -1 | -4,843,355 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,843,355.
Example:
1 x 4,843,355 = 4,843,355
and
-1 x -4,843,355 = 4,843,355
Notice both answers equal 4,843,355
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,843,355 and divide it by 2:
4,843,355 ÷ 2 = 2,421,677.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,421,677.5 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 | 4,843,355 | |
| -1 | -4,843,355 |
Now, we try dividing 4,843,355 by 3:
4,843,355 ÷ 3 = 1,614,451.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,614,451.6667 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 | 4,843,355 | |
| -1 | -4,843,355 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,843,355 ÷ 4 = 1,210,838.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,210,838.75 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 | 4,843,355 | |
| -1 | 4,843,355 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 107 | 535 | 823 | 1,177 | 4,115 | 5,885 | 9,053 | 45,265 | 88,061 | 440,305 | 968,671 | 4,843,355 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -107 | -535 | -823 | -1,177 | -4,115 | -5,885 | -9,053 | -45,265 | -88,061 | -440,305 | -968,671 | -4,843,355 |
