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 9,437,375, 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 | 9,437,375 | |
| -1 | -9,437,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,437,375.
Example:
1 x 9,437,375 = 9,437,375
and
-1 x -9,437,375 = 9,437,375
Notice both answers equal 9,437,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,437,375 and divide it by 2:
9,437,375 ÷ 2 = 4,718,687.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,718,687.5 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 | 9,437,375 | |
| -1 | -9,437,375 |
Now, we try dividing 9,437,375 by 3:
9,437,375 ÷ 3 = 3,145,791.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,145,791.6667 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 | 9,437,375 | |
| -1 | -9,437,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,437,375 ÷ 4 = 2,359,343.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,359,343.75 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 | 9,437,375 | |
| -1 | 9,437,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 103 | 125 | 515 | 733 | 2,575 | 3,665 | 12,875 | 18,325 | 75,499 | 91,625 | 377,495 | 1,887,475 | 9,437,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -103 | -125 | -515 | -733 | -2,575 | -3,665 | -12,875 | -18,325 | -75,499 | -91,625 | -377,495 | -1,887,475 | -9,437,375 |
