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 1,160,957, 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 | 1,160,957 | |
| -1 | -1,160,957 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,160,957.
Example:
1 x 1,160,957 = 1,160,957
and
-1 x -1,160,957 = 1,160,957
Notice both answers equal 1,160,957
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,160,957 and divide it by 2:
1,160,957 ÷ 2 = 580,478.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 580,478.5 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 | 1,160,957 | |
| -1 | -1,160,957 |
Now, we try dividing 1,160,957 by 3:
1,160,957 ÷ 3 = 386,985.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 386,985.6667 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 | 1,160,957 | |
| -1 | -1,160,957 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,160,957 ÷ 4 = 290,239.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 290,239.25 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 | 1,160,957 | |
| -1 | 1,160,957 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 29 | 43 | 49 | 133 | 203 | 301 | 551 | 817 | 931 | 1,247 | 1,421 | 2,107 | 3,857 | 5,719 | 8,729 | 23,693 | 26,999 | 40,033 | 61,103 | 165,851 | 1,160,957 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -29 | -43 | -49 | -133 | -203 | -301 | -551 | -817 | -931 | -1,247 | -1,421 | -2,107 | -3,857 | -5,719 | -8,729 | -23,693 | -26,999 | -40,033 | -61,103 | -165,851 | -1,160,957 |
