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 8,276,225, 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 | 8,276,225 | |
| -1 | -8,276,225 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,276,225.
Example:
1 x 8,276,225 = 8,276,225
and
-1 x -8,276,225 = 8,276,225
Notice both answers equal 8,276,225
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,276,225 and divide it by 2:
8,276,225 ÷ 2 = 4,138,112.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,138,112.5 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 | 8,276,225 | |
| -1 | -8,276,225 |
Now, we try dividing 8,276,225 by 3:
8,276,225 ÷ 3 = 2,758,741.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,758,741.6667 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 | 8,276,225 | |
| -1 | -8,276,225 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,276,225 ÷ 4 = 2,069,056.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,069,056.25 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 | 8,276,225 | |
| -1 | 8,276,225 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 31 | 59 | 155 | 181 | 295 | 775 | 905 | 1,475 | 1,829 | 4,525 | 5,611 | 9,145 | 10,679 | 28,055 | 45,725 | 53,395 | 140,275 | 266,975 | 331,049 | 1,655,245 | 8,276,225 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -31 | -59 | -155 | -181 | -295 | -775 | -905 | -1,475 | -1,829 | -4,525 | -5,611 | -9,145 | -10,679 | -28,055 | -45,725 | -53,395 | -140,275 | -266,975 | -331,049 | -1,655,245 | -8,276,225 |
