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 4,955,275, 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 | 4,955,275 | |
| -1 | -4,955,275 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,955,275.
Example:
1 x 4,955,275 = 4,955,275
and
-1 x -4,955,275 = 4,955,275
Notice both answers equal 4,955,275
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,955,275 and divide it by 2:
4,955,275 ÷ 2 = 2,477,637.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,477,637.5 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 | 4,955,275 | |
| -1 | -4,955,275 |
Now, we try dividing 4,955,275 by 3:
4,955,275 ÷ 3 = 1,651,758.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,651,758.3333 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 | 4,955,275 | |
| -1 | -4,955,275 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,955,275 ÷ 4 = 1,238,818.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,238,818.75 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 | 4,955,275 | |
| -1 | 4,955,275 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 25 | 65 | 79 | 193 | 325 | 395 | 965 | 1,027 | 1,975 | 2,509 | 4,825 | 5,135 | 12,545 | 15,247 | 25,675 | 62,725 | 76,235 | 198,211 | 381,175 | 991,055 | 4,955,275 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -25 | -65 | -79 | -193 | -325 | -395 | -965 | -1,027 | -1,975 | -2,509 | -4,825 | -5,135 | -12,545 | -15,247 | -25,675 | -62,725 | -76,235 | -198,211 | -381,175 | -991,055 | -4,955,275 |
