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 1,235,003, 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 | 1,235,003 | |
| -1 | -1,235,003 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,235,003.
Example:
1 x 1,235,003 = 1,235,003
and
-1 x -1,235,003 = 1,235,003
Notice both answers equal 1,235,003
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,235,003 and divide it by 2:
1,235,003 ÷ 2 = 617,501.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 617,501.5 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 | 1,235,003 | |
| -1 | -1,235,003 |
Now, we try dividing 1,235,003 by 3:
1,235,003 ÷ 3 = 411,667.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 411,667.6667 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 | 1,235,003 | |
| -1 | -1,235,003 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,235,003 ÷ 4 = 308,750.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 308,750.75 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 | 1,235,003 | |
| -1 | 1,235,003 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 43 | 77 | 301 | 373 | 473 | 2,611 | 3,311 | 4,103 | 16,039 | 28,721 | 112,273 | 176,429 | 1,235,003 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -43 | -77 | -301 | -373 | -473 | -2,611 | -3,311 | -4,103 | -16,039 | -28,721 | -112,273 | -176,429 | -1,235,003 |
