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 1,082,015, 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 | 1,082,015 | |
| -1 | -1,082,015 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,082,015.
Example:
1 x 1,082,015 = 1,082,015
and
-1 x -1,082,015 = 1,082,015
Notice both answers equal 1,082,015
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,082,015 and divide it by 2:
1,082,015 ÷ 2 = 541,007.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 541,007.5 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 | 1,082,015 | |
| -1 | -1,082,015 |
Now, we try dividing 1,082,015 by 3:
1,082,015 ÷ 3 = 360,671.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 360,671.6667 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 | 1,082,015 | |
| -1 | -1,082,015 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,082,015 ÷ 4 = 270,503.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 270,503.75 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 | 1,082,015 | |
| -1 | 1,082,015 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 103 | 191 | 515 | 955 | 1,133 | 2,101 | 5,665 | 10,505 | 19,673 | 98,365 | 216,403 | 1,082,015 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -103 | -191 | -515 | -955 | -1,133 | -2,101 | -5,665 | -10,505 | -19,673 | -98,365 | -216,403 | -1,082,015 |
