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 1,146,175, 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 | 1,146,175 | |
| -1 | -1,146,175 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,146,175.
Example:
1 x 1,146,175 = 1,146,175
and
-1 x -1,146,175 = 1,146,175
Notice both answers equal 1,146,175
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,146,175 and divide it by 2:
1,146,175 ÷ 2 = 573,087.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 573,087.5 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 | 1,146,175 | |
| -1 | -1,146,175 |
Now, we try dividing 1,146,175 by 3:
1,146,175 ÷ 3 = 382,058.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 382,058.3333 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 | 1,146,175 | |
| -1 | -1,146,175 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,146,175 ÷ 4 = 286,543.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 286,543.75 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 | 1,146,175 | |
| -1 | 1,146,175 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 25 | 95 | 127 | 361 | 475 | 635 | 1,805 | 2,413 | 3,175 | 9,025 | 12,065 | 45,847 | 60,325 | 229,235 | 1,146,175 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -25 | -95 | -127 | -361 | -475 | -635 | -1,805 | -2,413 | -3,175 | -9,025 | -12,065 | -45,847 | -60,325 | -229,235 | -1,146,175 |
