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 8,839,925, 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 | 8,839,925 | |
| -1 | -8,839,925 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,839,925.
Example:
1 x 8,839,925 = 8,839,925
and
-1 x -8,839,925 = 8,839,925
Notice both answers equal 8,839,925
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,839,925 and divide it by 2:
8,839,925 ÷ 2 = 4,419,962.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,419,962.5 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 | 8,839,925 | |
| -1 | -8,839,925 |
Now, we try dividing 8,839,925 by 3:
8,839,925 ÷ 3 = 2,946,641.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,946,641.6667 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 | 8,839,925 | |
| -1 | -8,839,925 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,839,925 ÷ 4 = 2,209,981.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,209,981.25 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 | 8,839,925 | |
| -1 | 8,839,925 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 29 | 89 | 137 | 145 | 445 | 685 | 725 | 2,225 | 2,581 | 3,425 | 3,973 | 12,193 | 12,905 | 19,865 | 60,965 | 64,525 | 99,325 | 304,825 | 353,597 | 1,767,985 | 8,839,925 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -29 | -89 | -137 | -145 | -445 | -685 | -725 | -2,225 | -2,581 | -3,425 | -3,973 | -12,193 | -12,905 | -19,865 | -60,965 | -64,525 | -99,325 | -304,825 | -353,597 | -1,767,985 | -8,839,925 |
