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 4,965,235, 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 | 4,965,235 | |
| -1 | -4,965,235 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 4,965,235.
Example:
1 x 4,965,235 = 4,965,235
and
-1 x -4,965,235 = 4,965,235
Notice both answers equal 4,965,235
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 4,965,235 and divide it by 2:
4,965,235 ÷ 2 = 2,482,617.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,482,617.5 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 | 4,965,235 | |
| -1 | -4,965,235 |
Now, we try dividing 4,965,235 by 3:
4,965,235 ÷ 3 = 1,655,078.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,655,078.3333 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 | 4,965,235 | |
| -1 | -4,965,235 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
4,965,235 ÷ 4 = 1,241,308.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,241,308.75 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 | 4,965,235 | |
| -1 | 4,965,235 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 29 | 55 | 121 | 145 | 283 | 319 | 605 | 1,415 | 1,595 | 3,113 | 3,509 | 8,207 | 15,565 | 17,545 | 34,243 | 41,035 | 90,277 | 171,215 | 451,385 | 993,047 | 4,965,235 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -29 | -55 | -121 | -145 | -283 | -319 | -605 | -1,415 | -1,595 | -3,113 | -3,509 | -8,207 | -15,565 | -17,545 | -34,243 | -41,035 | -90,277 | -171,215 | -451,385 | -993,047 | -4,965,235 |
