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 1,174,979, 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 | 1,174,979 | |
| -1 | -1,174,979 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,174,979.
Example:
1 x 1,174,979 = 1,174,979
and
-1 x -1,174,979 = 1,174,979
Notice both answers equal 1,174,979
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,174,979 and divide it by 2:
1,174,979 ÷ 2 = 587,489.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 587,489.5 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 | 1,174,979 | |
| -1 | -1,174,979 |
Now, we try dividing 1,174,979 by 3:
1,174,979 ÷ 3 = 391,659.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 391,659.6667 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 | 1,174,979 | |
| -1 | -1,174,979 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,174,979 ÷ 4 = 293,744.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 293,744.75 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 | 1,174,979 | |
| -1 | 1,174,979 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 19 | 67 | 71 | 247 | 871 | 923 | 1,273 | 1,349 | 4,757 | 16,549 | 17,537 | 61,841 | 90,383 | 1,174,979 |
| -1 | -13 | -19 | -67 | -71 | -247 | -871 | -923 | -1,273 | -1,349 | -4,757 | -16,549 | -17,537 | -61,841 | -90,383 | -1,174,979 |
