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 1,102,453, 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 | 1,102,453 | |
| -1 | -1,102,453 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,102,453.
Example:
1 x 1,102,453 = 1,102,453
and
-1 x -1,102,453 = 1,102,453
Notice both answers equal 1,102,453
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,102,453 and divide it by 2:
1,102,453 ÷ 2 = 551,226.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 551,226.5 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 | 1,102,453 | |
| -1 | -1,102,453 |
Now, we try dividing 1,102,453 by 3:
1,102,453 ÷ 3 = 367,484.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 367,484.3333 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 | 1,102,453 | |
| -1 | -1,102,453 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,102,453 ÷ 4 = 275,613.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 275,613.25 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 | 1,102,453 | |
| -1 | 1,102,453 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 31 | 53 | 61 | 341 | 583 | 671 | 1,643 | 1,891 | 3,233 | 18,073 | 20,801 | 35,563 | 100,223 | 1,102,453 |
| -1 | -11 | -31 | -53 | -61 | -341 | -583 | -671 | -1,643 | -1,891 | -3,233 | -18,073 | -20,801 | -35,563 | -100,223 | -1,102,453 |
