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 9,412,615, 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 | 9,412,615 | |
| -1 | -9,412,615 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,412,615.
Example:
1 x 9,412,615 = 9,412,615
and
-1 x -9,412,615 = 9,412,615
Notice both answers equal 9,412,615
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,412,615 and divide it by 2:
9,412,615 ÷ 2 = 4,706,307.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,706,307.5 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 | 9,412,615 | |
| -1 | -9,412,615 |
Now, we try dividing 9,412,615 by 3:
9,412,615 ÷ 3 = 3,137,538.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,137,538.3333 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 | 9,412,615 | |
| -1 | -9,412,615 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,412,615 ÷ 4 = 2,353,153.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,353,153.75 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 | 9,412,615 | |
| -1 | 9,412,615 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 37 | 83 | 185 | 415 | 613 | 3,065 | 3,071 | 15,355 | 22,681 | 50,879 | 113,405 | 254,395 | 1,882,523 | 9,412,615 |
| -1 | -5 | -37 | -83 | -185 | -415 | -613 | -3,065 | -3,071 | -15,355 | -22,681 | -50,879 | -113,405 | -254,395 | -1,882,523 | -9,412,615 |
