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 1,290,905, 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 | 1,290,905 | |
| -1 | -1,290,905 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,290,905.
Example:
1 x 1,290,905 = 1,290,905
and
-1 x -1,290,905 = 1,290,905
Notice both answers equal 1,290,905
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,290,905 and divide it by 2:
1,290,905 ÷ 2 = 645,452.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 645,452.5 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 | 1,290,905 | |
| -1 | -1,290,905 |
Now, we try dividing 1,290,905 by 3:
1,290,905 ÷ 3 = 430,301.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 430,301.6667 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 | 1,290,905 | |
| -1 | -1,290,905 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,290,905 ÷ 4 = 322,726.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 322,726.25 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 | 1,290,905 | |
| -1 | 1,290,905 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 11 | 35 | 49 | 55 | 77 | 245 | 385 | 479 | 539 | 2,395 | 2,695 | 3,353 | 5,269 | 16,765 | 23,471 | 26,345 | 36,883 | 117,355 | 184,415 | 258,181 | 1,290,905 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -11 | -35 | -49 | -55 | -77 | -245 | -385 | -479 | -539 | -2,395 | -2,695 | -3,353 | -5,269 | -16,765 | -23,471 | -26,345 | -36,883 | -117,355 | -184,415 | -258,181 | -1,290,905 |
