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 8,004,437, 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 | 8,004,437 | |
| -1 | -8,004,437 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,004,437.
Example:
1 x 8,004,437 = 8,004,437
and
-1 x -8,004,437 = 8,004,437
Notice both answers equal 8,004,437
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,004,437 and divide it by 2:
8,004,437 ÷ 2 = 4,002,218.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,002,218.5 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 | 8,004,437 | |
| -1 | -8,004,437 |
Now, we try dividing 8,004,437 by 3:
8,004,437 ÷ 3 = 2,668,145.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,668,145.6667 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 | 8,004,437 | |
| -1 | -8,004,437 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,004,437 ÷ 4 = 2,001,109.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,001,109.25 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 | 8,004,437 | |
| -1 | 8,004,437 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 23 | 83 | 161 | 581 | 599 | 1,909 | 4,193 | 13,363 | 13,777 | 49,717 | 96,439 | 348,019 | 1,143,491 | 8,004,437 |
| -1 | -7 | -23 | -83 | -161 | -581 | -599 | -1,909 | -4,193 | -13,363 | -13,777 | -49,717 | -96,439 | -348,019 | -1,143,491 | -8,004,437 |
