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 8,470,295, 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 | 8,470,295 | |
| -1 | -8,470,295 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,470,295.
Example:
1 x 8,470,295 = 8,470,295
and
-1 x -8,470,295 = 8,470,295
Notice both answers equal 8,470,295
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,470,295 and divide it by 2:
8,470,295 ÷ 2 = 4,235,147.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,235,147.5 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 | 8,470,295 | |
| -1 | -8,470,295 |
Now, we try dividing 8,470,295 by 3:
8,470,295 ÷ 3 = 2,823,431.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,823,431.6667 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 | 8,470,295 | |
| -1 | -8,470,295 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,470,295 ÷ 4 = 2,117,573.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,117,573.75 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 | 8,470,295 | |
| -1 | 8,470,295 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 95 | 163 | 547 | 815 | 2,735 | 3,097 | 10,393 | 15,485 | 51,965 | 89,161 | 445,805 | 1,694,059 | 8,470,295 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -95 | -163 | -547 | -815 | -2,735 | -3,097 | -10,393 | -15,485 | -51,965 | -89,161 | -445,805 | -1,694,059 | -8,470,295 |
