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 103,675, 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 | 103,675 | |
| -1 | -103,675 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 103,675.
Example:
1 x 103,675 = 103,675
and
-1 x -103,675 = 103,675
Notice both answers equal 103,675
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 103,675 and divide it by 2:
103,675 ÷ 2 = 51,837.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 51,837.5 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 | 103,675 | |
| -1 | -103,675 |
Now, we try dividing 103,675 by 3:
103,675 ÷ 3 = 34,558.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 34,558.3333 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 | 103,675 | |
| -1 | -103,675 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
103,675 ÷ 4 = 25,918.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 25,918.75 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 | 103,675 | |
| -1 | 103,675 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 13 | 25 | 29 | 55 | 65 | 143 | 145 | 275 | 319 | 325 | 377 | 715 | 725 | 1,595 | 1,885 | 3,575 | 4,147 | 7,975 | 9,425 | 20,735 | 103,675 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -13 | -25 | -29 | -55 | -65 | -143 | -145 | -275 | -319 | -325 | -377 | -715 | -725 | -1,595 | -1,885 | -3,575 | -4,147 | -7,975 | -9,425 | -20,735 | -103,675 |
