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 1,151,755, 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 | 1,151,755 | |
| -1 | -1,151,755 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,151,755.
Example:
1 x 1,151,755 = 1,151,755
and
-1 x -1,151,755 = 1,151,755
Notice both answers equal 1,151,755
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,151,755 and divide it by 2:
1,151,755 ÷ 2 = 575,877.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 575,877.5 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 | 1,151,755 | |
| -1 | -1,151,755 |
Now, we try dividing 1,151,755 by 3:
1,151,755 ÷ 3 = 383,918.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 383,918.3333 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 | 1,151,755 | |
| -1 | -1,151,755 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,151,755 ÷ 4 = 287,938.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 287,938.75 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 | 1,151,755 | |
| -1 | 1,151,755 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 43 | 55 | 215 | 473 | 487 | 2,365 | 2,435 | 5,357 | 20,941 | 26,785 | 104,705 | 230,351 | 1,151,755 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -43 | -55 | -215 | -473 | -487 | -2,365 | -2,435 | -5,357 | -20,941 | -26,785 | -104,705 | -230,351 | -1,151,755 |
