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 8,246,005, 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 | 8,246,005 | |
| -1 | -8,246,005 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,246,005.
Example:
1 x 8,246,005 = 8,246,005
and
-1 x -8,246,005 = 8,246,005
Notice both answers equal 8,246,005
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,246,005 and divide it by 2:
8,246,005 ÷ 2 = 4,123,002.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,123,002.5 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 | 8,246,005 | |
| -1 | -8,246,005 |
Now, we try dividing 8,246,005 by 3:
8,246,005 ÷ 3 = 2,748,668.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,748,668.3333 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 | 8,246,005 | |
| -1 | -8,246,005 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,246,005 ÷ 4 = 2,061,501.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,061,501.25 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 | 8,246,005 | |
| -1 | 8,246,005 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 29 | 37 | 53 | 145 | 185 | 265 | 841 | 1,073 | 1,537 | 1,961 | 4,205 | 5,365 | 7,685 | 9,805 | 31,117 | 44,573 | 56,869 | 155,585 | 222,865 | 284,345 | 1,649,201 | 8,246,005 |
| -1 | -5 | -29 | -37 | -53 | -145 | -185 | -265 | -841 | -1,073 | -1,537 | -1,961 | -4,205 | -5,365 | -7,685 | -9,805 | -31,117 | -44,573 | -56,869 | -155,585 | -222,865 | -284,345 | -1,649,201 | -8,246,005 |
