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 1,020,833, 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 | 1,020,833 | |
| -1 | -1,020,833 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,020,833.
Example:
1 x 1,020,833 = 1,020,833
and
-1 x -1,020,833 = 1,020,833
Notice both answers equal 1,020,833
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,020,833 and divide it by 2:
1,020,833 ÷ 2 = 510,416.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 510,416.5 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 | 1,020,833 | |
| -1 | -1,020,833 |
Now, we try dividing 1,020,833 by 3:
1,020,833 ÷ 3 = 340,277.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 340,277.6667 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 | 1,020,833 | |
| -1 | -1,020,833 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,020,833 ÷ 4 = 255,208.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 255,208.25 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 | 1,020,833 | |
| -1 | 1,020,833 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 17 | 53 | 103 | 187 | 583 | 901 | 1,133 | 1,751 | 5,459 | 9,911 | 19,261 | 60,049 | 92,803 | 1,020,833 |
| -1 | -11 | -17 | -53 | -103 | -187 | -583 | -901 | -1,133 | -1,751 | -5,459 | -9,911 | -19,261 | -60,049 | -92,803 | -1,020,833 |
