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 1,169,021, 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 | 1,169,021 | |
| -1 | -1,169,021 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,169,021.
Example:
1 x 1,169,021 = 1,169,021
and
-1 x -1,169,021 = 1,169,021
Notice both answers equal 1,169,021
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,169,021 and divide it by 2:
1,169,021 ÷ 2 = 584,510.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 584,510.5 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 | 1,169,021 | |
| -1 | -1,169,021 |
Now, we try dividing 1,169,021 by 3:
1,169,021 ÷ 3 = 389,673.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 389,673.6667 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 | 1,169,021 | |
| -1 | -1,169,021 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,169,021 ÷ 4 = 292,255.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 292,255.25 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 | 1,169,021 | |
| -1 | 1,169,021 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 23 | 53 | 137 | 161 | 371 | 959 | 1,219 | 3,151 | 7,261 | 8,533 | 22,057 | 50,827 | 167,003 | 1,169,021 |
| -1 | -7 | -23 | -53 | -137 | -161 | -371 | -959 | -1,219 | -3,151 | -7,261 | -8,533 | -22,057 | -50,827 | -167,003 | -1,169,021 |
