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 1,062,061, 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 | 1,062,061 | |
| -1 | -1,062,061 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,062,061.
Example:
1 x 1,062,061 = 1,062,061
and
-1 x -1,062,061 = 1,062,061
Notice both answers equal 1,062,061
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,062,061 and divide it by 2:
1,062,061 ÷ 2 = 531,030.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 531,030.5 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 | 1,062,061 | |
| -1 | -1,062,061 |
Now, we try dividing 1,062,061 by 3:
1,062,061 ÷ 3 = 354,020.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 354,020.3333 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 | 1,062,061 | |
| -1 | -1,062,061 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,062,061 ÷ 4 = 265,515.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 265,515.25 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 | 1,062,061 | |
| -1 | 1,062,061 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 13 | 77 | 91 | 143 | 1,001 | 1,061 | 7,427 | 11,671 | 13,793 | 81,697 | 96,551 | 151,723 | 1,062,061 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -13 | -77 | -91 | -143 | -1,001 | -1,061 | -7,427 | -11,671 | -13,793 | -81,697 | -96,551 | -151,723 | -1,062,061 |
