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 9,672,575, 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 | 9,672,575 | |
| -1 | -9,672,575 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 9,672,575.
Example:
1 x 9,672,575 = 9,672,575
and
-1 x -9,672,575 = 9,672,575
Notice both answers equal 9,672,575
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 9,672,575 and divide it by 2:
9,672,575 ÷ 2 = 4,836,287.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 4,836,287.5 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 | 9,672,575 | |
| -1 | -9,672,575 |
Now, we try dividing 9,672,575 by 3:
9,672,575 ÷ 3 = 3,224,191.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,224,191.6667 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 | 9,672,575 | |
| -1 | -9,672,575 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
9,672,575 ÷ 4 = 2,418,143.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,418,143.75 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 | 9,672,575 | |
| -1 | 9,672,575 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 17 | 25 | 55 | 85 | 187 | 275 | 425 | 935 | 2,069 | 4,675 | 10,345 | 22,759 | 35,173 | 51,725 | 113,795 | 175,865 | 386,903 | 568,975 | 879,325 | 1,934,515 | 9,672,575 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -17 | -25 | -55 | -85 | -187 | -275 | -425 | -935 | -2,069 | -4,675 | -10,345 | -22,759 | -35,173 | -51,725 | -113,795 | -175,865 | -386,903 | -568,975 | -879,325 | -1,934,515 | -9,672,575 |
