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 9,630,595, 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 | 9,630,595 | |
| -1 | -9,630,595 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,630,595.
Example:
1 x 9,630,595 = 9,630,595
and
-1 x -9,630,595 = 9,630,595
Notice both answers equal 9,630,595
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,630,595 and divide it by 2:
9,630,595 ÷ 2 = 4,815,297.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,815,297.5 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 | 9,630,595 | |
| -1 | -9,630,595 |
Now, we try dividing 9,630,595 by 3:
9,630,595 ÷ 3 = 3,210,198.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,210,198.3333 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 | 9,630,595 | |
| -1 | -9,630,595 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,630,595 ÷ 4 = 2,407,648.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,407,648.75 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 | 9,630,595 | |
| -1 | 9,630,595 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 229 | 647 | 1,145 | 2,977 | 3,235 | 8,411 | 14,885 | 42,055 | 148,163 | 740,815 | 1,926,119 | 9,630,595 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -229 | -647 | -1,145 | -2,977 | -3,235 | -8,411 | -14,885 | -42,055 | -148,163 | -740,815 | -1,926,119 | -9,630,595 |
