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 8,851,325, 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 | 8,851,325 | |
| -1 | -8,851,325 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,851,325.
Example:
1 x 8,851,325 = 8,851,325
and
-1 x -8,851,325 = 8,851,325
Notice both answers equal 8,851,325
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,851,325 and divide it by 2:
8,851,325 ÷ 2 = 4,425,662.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,425,662.5 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 | 8,851,325 | |
| -1 | -8,851,325 |
Now, we try dividing 8,851,325 by 3:
8,851,325 ÷ 3 = 2,950,441.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,950,441.6667 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 | 8,851,325 | |
| -1 | -8,851,325 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,851,325 ÷ 4 = 2,212,831.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,212,831.25 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 | 8,851,325 | |
| -1 | 8,851,325 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 37 | 175 | 185 | 259 | 925 | 1,295 | 1,367 | 6,475 | 6,835 | 9,569 | 34,175 | 47,845 | 50,579 | 239,225 | 252,895 | 354,053 | 1,264,475 | 1,770,265 | 8,851,325 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -37 | -175 | -185 | -259 | -925 | -1,295 | -1,367 | -6,475 | -6,835 | -9,569 | -34,175 | -47,845 | -50,579 | -239,225 | -252,895 | -354,053 | -1,264,475 | -1,770,265 | -8,851,325 |
