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 1,041,845, 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 | 1,041,845 | |
| -1 | -1,041,845 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,041,845.
Example:
1 x 1,041,845 = 1,041,845
and
-1 x -1,041,845 = 1,041,845
Notice both answers equal 1,041,845
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,041,845 and divide it by 2:
1,041,845 ÷ 2 = 520,922.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 520,922.5 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 | 1,041,845 | |
| -1 | -1,041,845 |
Now, we try dividing 1,041,845 by 3:
1,041,845 ÷ 3 = 347,281.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 347,281.6667 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 | 1,041,845 | |
| -1 | -1,041,845 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,041,845 ÷ 4 = 260,461.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 260,461.25 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 | 1,041,845 | |
| -1 | 1,041,845 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 17 | 35 | 85 | 103 | 119 | 289 | 515 | 595 | 721 | 1,445 | 1,751 | 2,023 | 3,605 | 8,755 | 10,115 | 12,257 | 29,767 | 61,285 | 148,835 | 208,369 | 1,041,845 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -17 | -35 | -85 | -103 | -119 | -289 | -515 | -595 | -721 | -1,445 | -1,751 | -2,023 | -3,605 | -8,755 | -10,115 | -12,257 | -29,767 | -61,285 | -148,835 | -208,369 | -1,041,845 |
