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 7,279,825, 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 | 7,279,825 | |
| -1 | -7,279,825 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,279,825.
Example:
1 x 7,279,825 = 7,279,825
and
-1 x -7,279,825 = 7,279,825
Notice both answers equal 7,279,825
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,279,825 and divide it by 2:
7,279,825 ÷ 2 = 3,639,912.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,639,912.5 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 | 7,279,825 | |
| -1 | -7,279,825 |
Now, we try dividing 7,279,825 by 3:
7,279,825 ÷ 3 = 2,426,608.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,426,608.3333 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 | 7,279,825 | |
| -1 | -7,279,825 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,279,825 ÷ 4 = 1,819,956.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,819,956.25 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 | 7,279,825 | |
| -1 | 7,279,825 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 17 | 25 | 35 | 85 | 119 | 175 | 425 | 595 | 2,447 | 2,975 | 12,235 | 17,129 | 41,599 | 61,175 | 85,645 | 207,995 | 291,193 | 428,225 | 1,039,975 | 1,455,965 | 7,279,825 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -17 | -25 | -35 | -85 | -119 | -175 | -425 | -595 | -2,447 | -2,975 | -12,235 | -17,129 | -41,599 | -61,175 | -85,645 | -207,995 | -291,193 | -428,225 | -1,039,975 | -1,455,965 | -7,279,825 |
