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 1,008,665, 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 | 1,008,665 | |
| -1 | -1,008,665 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,008,665.
Example:
1 x 1,008,665 = 1,008,665
and
-1 x -1,008,665 = 1,008,665
Notice both answers equal 1,008,665
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,008,665 and divide it by 2:
1,008,665 ÷ 2 = 504,332.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 504,332.5 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 | 1,008,665 | |
| -1 | -1,008,665 |
Now, we try dividing 1,008,665 by 3:
1,008,665 ÷ 3 = 336,221.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 336,221.6667 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 | 1,008,665 | |
| -1 | -1,008,665 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,008,665 ÷ 4 = 252,166.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 252,166.25 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 | 1,008,665 | |
| -1 | 1,008,665 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 35 | 49 | 115 | 161 | 179 | 245 | 805 | 895 | 1,127 | 1,253 | 4,117 | 5,635 | 6,265 | 8,771 | 20,585 | 28,819 | 43,855 | 144,095 | 201,733 | 1,008,665 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -35 | -49 | -115 | -161 | -179 | -245 | -805 | -895 | -1,127 | -1,253 | -4,117 | -5,635 | -6,265 | -8,771 | -20,585 | -28,819 | -43,855 | -144,095 | -201,733 | -1,008,665 |
