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 8,653,175, 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 | 8,653,175 | |
| -1 | -8,653,175 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,653,175.
Example:
1 x 8,653,175 = 8,653,175
and
-1 x -8,653,175 = 8,653,175
Notice both answers equal 8,653,175
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,653,175 and divide it by 2:
8,653,175 ÷ 2 = 4,326,587.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,326,587.5 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 | 8,653,175 | |
| -1 | -8,653,175 |
Now, we try dividing 8,653,175 by 3:
8,653,175 ÷ 3 = 2,884,391.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,884,391.6667 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 | 8,653,175 | |
| -1 | -8,653,175 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,653,175 ÷ 4 = 2,163,293.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,163,293.75 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 | 8,653,175 | |
| -1 | 8,653,175 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 25 | 101 | 115 | 149 | 505 | 575 | 745 | 2,323 | 2,525 | 3,427 | 3,725 | 11,615 | 15,049 | 17,135 | 58,075 | 75,245 | 85,675 | 346,127 | 376,225 | 1,730,635 | 8,653,175 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -25 | -101 | -115 | -149 | -505 | -575 | -745 | -2,323 | -2,525 | -3,427 | -3,725 | -11,615 | -15,049 | -17,135 | -58,075 | -75,245 | -85,675 | -346,127 | -376,225 | -1,730,635 | -8,653,175 |
