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 4,862,575, 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 | 4,862,575 | |
| -1 | -4,862,575 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,862,575.
Example:
1 x 4,862,575 = 4,862,575
and
-1 x -4,862,575 = 4,862,575
Notice both answers equal 4,862,575
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,862,575 and divide it by 2:
4,862,575 ÷ 2 = 2,431,287.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,431,287.5 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 | 4,862,575 | |
| -1 | -4,862,575 |
Now, we try dividing 4,862,575 by 3:
4,862,575 ÷ 3 = 1,620,858.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,620,858.3333 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 | 4,862,575 | |
| -1 | -4,862,575 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,862,575 ÷ 4 = 1,215,643.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,215,643.75 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 | 4,862,575 | |
| -1 | 4,862,575 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 25 | 29 | 95 | 145 | 353 | 475 | 551 | 725 | 1,765 | 2,755 | 6,707 | 8,825 | 10,237 | 13,775 | 33,535 | 51,185 | 167,675 | 194,503 | 255,925 | 972,515 | 4,862,575 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -25 | -29 | -95 | -145 | -353 | -475 | -551 | -725 | -1,765 | -2,755 | -6,707 | -8,825 | -10,237 | -13,775 | -33,535 | -51,185 | -167,675 | -194,503 | -255,925 | -972,515 | -4,862,575 |
