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 1,275,295, 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 | 1,275,295 | |
| -1 | -1,275,295 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,275,295.
Example:
1 x 1,275,295 = 1,275,295
and
-1 x -1,275,295 = 1,275,295
Notice both answers equal 1,275,295
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,275,295 and divide it by 2:
1,275,295 ÷ 2 = 637,647.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 637,647.5 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 | 1,275,295 | |
| -1 | -1,275,295 |
Now, we try dividing 1,275,295 by 3:
1,275,295 ÷ 3 = 425,098.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 425,098.3333 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 | 1,275,295 | |
| -1 | -1,275,295 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,275,295 ÷ 4 = 318,823.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 318,823.75 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 | 1,275,295 | |
| -1 | 1,275,295 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 83 | 415 | 439 | 581 | 2,195 | 2,905 | 3,073 | 15,365 | 36,437 | 182,185 | 255,059 | 1,275,295 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -83 | -415 | -439 | -581 | -2,195 | -2,905 | -3,073 | -15,365 | -36,437 | -182,185 | -255,059 | -1,275,295 |
