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 1,146,803, 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 | 1,146,803 | |
| -1 | -1,146,803 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,146,803.
Example:
1 x 1,146,803 = 1,146,803
and
-1 x -1,146,803 = 1,146,803
Notice both answers equal 1,146,803
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,146,803 and divide it by 2:
1,146,803 ÷ 2 = 573,401.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 573,401.5 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 | 1,146,803 | |
| -1 | -1,146,803 |
Now, we try dividing 1,146,803 by 3:
1,146,803 ÷ 3 = 382,267.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 382,267.6667 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 | 1,146,803 | |
| -1 | -1,146,803 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,146,803 ÷ 4 = 286,700.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 286,700.75 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 | 1,146,803 | |
| -1 | 1,146,803 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 23 | 119 | 161 | 391 | 419 | 2,737 | 2,933 | 7,123 | 9,637 | 49,861 | 67,459 | 163,829 | 1,146,803 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -23 | -119 | -161 | -391 | -419 | -2,737 | -2,933 | -7,123 | -9,637 | -49,861 | -67,459 | -163,829 | -1,146,803 |
