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 9,383,245, 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 | 9,383,245 | |
| -1 | -9,383,245 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,383,245.
Example:
1 x 9,383,245 = 9,383,245
and
-1 x -9,383,245 = 9,383,245
Notice both answers equal 9,383,245
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,383,245 and divide it by 2:
9,383,245 ÷ 2 = 4,691,622.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,691,622.5 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 | 9,383,245 | |
| -1 | -9,383,245 |
Now, we try dividing 9,383,245 by 3:
9,383,245 ÷ 3 = 3,127,748.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,127,748.3333 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 | 9,383,245 | |
| -1 | -9,383,245 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,383,245 ÷ 4 = 2,345,811.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,345,811.25 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 | 9,383,245 | |
| -1 | 9,383,245 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 43 | 95 | 215 | 817 | 2,297 | 4,085 | 11,485 | 43,643 | 98,771 | 218,215 | 493,855 | 1,876,649 | 9,383,245 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -43 | -95 | -215 | -817 | -2,297 | -4,085 | -11,485 | -43,643 | -98,771 | -218,215 | -493,855 | -1,876,649 | -9,383,245 |
