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 7,508,465, 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 | 7,508,465 | |
| -1 | -7,508,465 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,508,465.
Example:
1 x 7,508,465 = 7,508,465
and
-1 x -7,508,465 = 7,508,465
Notice both answers equal 7,508,465
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,508,465 and divide it by 2:
7,508,465 ÷ 2 = 3,754,232.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,754,232.5 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 | 7,508,465 | |
| -1 | -7,508,465 |
Now, we try dividing 7,508,465 by 3:
7,508,465 ÷ 3 = 2,502,821.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,502,821.6667 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 | 7,508,465 | |
| -1 | -7,508,465 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,508,465 ÷ 4 = 1,877,116.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,877,116.25 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 | 7,508,465 | |
| -1 | 7,508,465 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 109 | 115 | 545 | 599 | 2,507 | 2,995 | 12,535 | 13,777 | 65,291 | 68,885 | 326,455 | 1,501,693 | 7,508,465 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -109 | -115 | -545 | -599 | -2,507 | -2,995 | -12,535 | -13,777 | -65,291 | -68,885 | -326,455 | -1,501,693 | -7,508,465 |
