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 1,265,484, 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 | 1,265,484 | |
| -1 | -1,265,484 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,265,484.
Example:
1 x 1,265,484 = 1,265,484
and
-1 x -1,265,484 = 1,265,484
Notice both answers equal 1,265,484
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,265,484 and divide it by 2:
1,265,484 ÷ 2 = 632,742
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 632,742 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 2 | 632,742 | 1,265,484 | |
| -1 | -2 | -632,742 | -1,265,484 |
Now, we try dividing 1,265,484 by 3:
1,265,484 ÷ 3 = 421,828
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 421,828 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 421,828 | 632,742 | 1,265,484 | |
| -1 | -2 | -3 | -421,828 | -632,742 | -1,265,484 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,265,484 ÷ 4 = 316,371
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 316,371 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 316,371 | 421,828 | 632,742 | 1,265,484 | |
| -1 | -2 | -3 | -4 | -316,371 | -421,828 | -632,742 | 1,265,484 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 6 | 11 | 12 | 22 | 33 | 44 | 66 | 132 | 9,587 | 19,174 | 28,761 | 38,348 | 57,522 | 105,457 | 115,044 | 210,914 | 316,371 | 421,828 | 632,742 | 1,265,484 |
| -1 | -2 | -3 | -4 | -6 | -11 | -12 | -22 | -33 | -44 | -66 | -132 | -9,587 | -19,174 | -28,761 | -38,348 | -57,522 | -105,457 | -115,044 | -210,914 | -316,371 | -421,828 | -632,742 | -1,265,484 |
