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 1,032,845, 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 | 1,032,845 | |
| -1 | -1,032,845 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,032,845.
Example:
1 x 1,032,845 = 1,032,845
and
-1 x -1,032,845 = 1,032,845
Notice both answers equal 1,032,845
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,032,845 and divide it by 2:
1,032,845 ÷ 2 = 516,422.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 516,422.5 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 | 1,032,845 | |
| -1 | -1,032,845 |
Now, we try dividing 1,032,845 by 3:
1,032,845 ÷ 3 = 344,281.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 344,281.6667 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 | 1,032,845 | |
| -1 | -1,032,845 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,032,845 ÷ 4 = 258,211.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 258,211.25 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 | 1,032,845 | |
| -1 | 1,032,845 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 89 | 211 | 445 | 979 | 1,055 | 2,321 | 4,895 | 11,605 | 18,779 | 93,895 | 206,569 | 1,032,845 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -89 | -211 | -445 | -979 | -1,055 | -2,321 | -4,895 | -11,605 | -18,779 | -93,895 | -206,569 | -1,032,845 |
