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 7,459,933, 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 | 7,459,933 | |
| -1 | -7,459,933 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,459,933.
Example:
1 x 7,459,933 = 7,459,933
and
-1 x -7,459,933 = 7,459,933
Notice both answers equal 7,459,933
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,459,933 and divide it by 2:
7,459,933 ÷ 2 = 3,729,966.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,729,966.5 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 | 7,459,933 | |
| -1 | -7,459,933 |
Now, we try dividing 7,459,933 by 3:
7,459,933 ÷ 3 = 2,486,644.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,486,644.3333 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 | 7,459,933 | |
| -1 | -7,459,933 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,459,933 ÷ 4 = 1,864,983.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,864,983.25 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 | 7,459,933 | |
| -1 | 7,459,933 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 31 | 107 | 173 | 403 | 1,391 | 2,249 | 3,317 | 5,363 | 18,511 | 43,121 | 69,719 | 240,643 | 573,841 | 7,459,933 |
| -1 | -13 | -31 | -107 | -173 | -403 | -1,391 | -2,249 | -3,317 | -5,363 | -18,511 | -43,121 | -69,719 | -240,643 | -573,841 | -7,459,933 |
