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 8,885,635, 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 | 8,885,635 | |
| -1 | -8,885,635 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 8,885,635.
Example:
1 x 8,885,635 = 8,885,635
and
-1 x -8,885,635 = 8,885,635
Notice both answers equal 8,885,635
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 8,885,635 and divide it by 2:
8,885,635 ÷ 2 = 4,442,817.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,442,817.5 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 | 8,885,635 | |
| -1 | -8,885,635 |
Now, we try dividing 8,885,635 by 3:
8,885,635 ÷ 3 = 2,961,878.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,961,878.3333 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 | 8,885,635 | |
| -1 | -8,885,635 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
8,885,635 ÷ 4 = 2,221,408.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,221,408.75 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 | 8,885,635 | |
| -1 | 8,885,635 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 19 | 55 | 95 | 121 | 209 | 605 | 773 | 1,045 | 2,299 | 3,865 | 8,503 | 11,495 | 14,687 | 42,515 | 73,435 | 93,533 | 161,557 | 467,665 | 807,785 | 1,777,127 | 8,885,635 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -19 | -55 | -95 | -121 | -209 | -605 | -773 | -1,045 | -2,299 | -3,865 | -8,503 | -11,495 | -14,687 | -42,515 | -73,435 | -93,533 | -161,557 | -467,665 | -807,785 | -1,777,127 | -8,885,635 |
