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 1,338,623, 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 | 1,338,623 | |
| -1 | -1,338,623 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,338,623.
Example:
1 x 1,338,623 = 1,338,623
and
-1 x -1,338,623 = 1,338,623
Notice both answers equal 1,338,623
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,338,623 and divide it by 2:
1,338,623 ÷ 2 = 669,311.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 669,311.5 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 | 1,338,623 | |
| -1 | -1,338,623 |
Now, we try dividing 1,338,623 by 3:
1,338,623 ÷ 3 = 446,207.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 446,207.6667 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 | 1,338,623 | |
| -1 | -1,338,623 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,338,623 ÷ 4 = 334,655.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 334,655.75 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 | 1,338,623 | |
| -1 | 1,338,623 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 23 | 37 | 121 | 143 | 253 | 299 | 407 | 481 | 851 | 1,573 | 2,783 | 3,289 | 4,477 | 5,291 | 9,361 | 11,063 | 36,179 | 58,201 | 102,971 | 121,693 | 1,338,623 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -23 | -37 | -121 | -143 | -253 | -299 | -407 | -481 | -851 | -1,573 | -2,783 | -3,289 | -4,477 | -5,291 | -9,361 | -11,063 | -36,179 | -58,201 | -102,971 | -121,693 | -1,338,623 |
