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 7,449,247, 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 | 7,449,247 | |
| -1 | -7,449,247 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,449,247.
Example:
1 x 7,449,247 = 7,449,247
and
-1 x -7,449,247 = 7,449,247
Notice both answers equal 7,449,247
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,449,247 and divide it by 2:
7,449,247 ÷ 2 = 3,724,623.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,724,623.5 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 | 7,449,247 | |
| -1 | -7,449,247 |
Now, we try dividing 7,449,247 by 3:
7,449,247 ÷ 3 = 2,483,082.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,483,082.3333 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 | 7,449,247 | |
| -1 | -7,449,247 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,449,247 ÷ 4 = 1,862,311.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,862,311.75 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 | 7,449,247 | |
| -1 | 7,449,247 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 17 | 37 | 221 | 481 | 629 | 911 | 8,177 | 11,843 | 15,487 | 33,707 | 201,331 | 438,191 | 573,019 | 7,449,247 |
| -1 | -13 | -17 | -37 | -221 | -481 | -629 | -911 | -8,177 | -11,843 | -15,487 | -33,707 | -201,331 | -438,191 | -573,019 | -7,449,247 |
