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 1,056,341, 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 | 1,056,341 | |
| -1 | -1,056,341 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,056,341.
Example:
1 x 1,056,341 = 1,056,341
and
-1 x -1,056,341 = 1,056,341
Notice both answers equal 1,056,341
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,056,341 and divide it by 2:
1,056,341 ÷ 2 = 528,170.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 528,170.5 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 | 1,056,341 | |
| -1 | -1,056,341 |
Now, we try dividing 1,056,341 by 3:
1,056,341 ÷ 3 = 352,113.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 352,113.6667 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 | 1,056,341 | |
| -1 | -1,056,341 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,056,341 ÷ 4 = 264,085.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 264,085.25 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 | 1,056,341 | |
| -1 | 1,056,341 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 83 | 89 | 143 | 913 | 979 | 1,079 | 1,157 | 7,387 | 11,869 | 12,727 | 81,257 | 96,031 | 1,056,341 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -83 | -89 | -143 | -913 | -979 | -1,079 | -1,157 | -7,387 | -11,869 | -12,727 | -81,257 | -96,031 | -1,056,341 |
