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 1,001,167, 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 | 1,001,167 | |
| -1 | -1,001,167 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,001,167.
Example:
1 x 1,001,167 = 1,001,167
and
-1 x -1,001,167 = 1,001,167
Notice both answers equal 1,001,167
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,001,167 and divide it by 2:
1,001,167 ÷ 2 = 500,583.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 500,583.5 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 | 1,001,167 | |
| -1 | -1,001,167 |
Now, we try dividing 1,001,167 by 3:
1,001,167 ÷ 3 = 333,722.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 333,722.3333 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 | 1,001,167 | |
| -1 | -1,001,167 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,001,167 ÷ 4 = 250,291.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 250,291.75 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 | 1,001,167 | |
| -1 | 1,001,167 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 23 | 29 | 79 | 437 | 551 | 667 | 1,501 | 1,817 | 2,291 | 12,673 | 34,523 | 43,529 | 52,693 | 1,001,167 |
| -1 | -19 | -23 | -29 | -79 | -437 | -551 | -667 | -1,501 | -1,817 | -2,291 | -12,673 | -34,523 | -43,529 | -52,693 | -1,001,167 |
