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 9,502,945, 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 | 9,502,945 | |
| -1 | -9,502,945 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,502,945.
Example:
1 x 9,502,945 = 9,502,945
and
-1 x -9,502,945 = 9,502,945
Notice both answers equal 9,502,945
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,502,945 and divide it by 2:
9,502,945 ÷ 2 = 4,751,472.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,751,472.5 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 | 9,502,945 | |
| -1 | -9,502,945 |
Now, we try dividing 9,502,945 by 3:
9,502,945 ÷ 3 = 3,167,648.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,167,648.3333 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 | 9,502,945 | |
| -1 | -9,502,945 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,502,945 ÷ 4 = 2,375,736.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,375,736.25 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 | 9,502,945 | |
| -1 | 9,502,945 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 67 | 95 | 335 | 1,273 | 1,493 | 6,365 | 7,465 | 28,367 | 100,031 | 141,835 | 500,155 | 1,900,589 | 9,502,945 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -67 | -95 | -335 | -1,273 | -1,493 | -6,365 | -7,465 | -28,367 | -100,031 | -141,835 | -500,155 | -1,900,589 | -9,502,945 |
