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 1,018,567, 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 | 1,018,567 | |
| -1 | -1,018,567 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,018,567.
Example:
1 x 1,018,567 = 1,018,567
and
-1 x -1,018,567 = 1,018,567
Notice both answers equal 1,018,567
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,018,567 and divide it by 2:
1,018,567 ÷ 2 = 509,283.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 509,283.5 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 | 1,018,567 | |
| -1 | -1,018,567 |
Now, we try dividing 1,018,567 by 3:
1,018,567 ÷ 3 = 339,522.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 339,522.3333 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 | 1,018,567 | |
| -1 | -1,018,567 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,018,567 ÷ 4 = 254,641.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 254,641.75 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 | 1,018,567 | |
| -1 | 1,018,567 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 29 | 31 | 103 | 319 | 341 | 899 | 1,133 | 2,987 | 3,193 | 9,889 | 32,857 | 35,123 | 92,597 | 1,018,567 |
| -1 | -11 | -29 | -31 | -103 | -319 | -341 | -899 | -1,133 | -2,987 | -3,193 | -9,889 | -32,857 | -35,123 | -92,597 | -1,018,567 |
