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 6,372,325, 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 | 6,372,325 | |
| -1 | -6,372,325 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,372,325.
Example:
1 x 6,372,325 = 6,372,325
and
-1 x -6,372,325 = 6,372,325
Notice both answers equal 6,372,325
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,372,325 and divide it by 2:
6,372,325 ÷ 2 = 3,186,162.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,186,162.5 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 | 6,372,325 | |
| -1 | -6,372,325 |
Now, we try dividing 6,372,325 by 3:
6,372,325 ÷ 3 = 2,124,108.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,124,108.3333 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 | 6,372,325 | |
| -1 | -6,372,325 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,372,325 ÷ 4 = 1,593,081.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,593,081.25 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 | 6,372,325 | |
| -1 | 6,372,325 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 37 | 83 | 185 | 415 | 925 | 2,075 | 3,071 | 6,889 | 15,355 | 34,445 | 76,775 | 172,225 | 254,893 | 1,274,465 | 6,372,325 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -37 | -83 | -185 | -415 | -925 | -2,075 | -3,071 | -6,889 | -15,355 | -34,445 | -76,775 | -172,225 | -254,893 | -1,274,465 | -6,372,325 |
