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 1,352,221, 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 | 1,352,221 | |
| -1 | -1,352,221 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,352,221.
Example:
1 x 1,352,221 = 1,352,221
and
-1 x -1,352,221 = 1,352,221
Notice both answers equal 1,352,221
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,352,221 and divide it by 2:
1,352,221 ÷ 2 = 676,110.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 676,110.5 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 | 1,352,221 | |
| -1 | -1,352,221 |
Now, we try dividing 1,352,221 by 3:
1,352,221 ÷ 3 = 450,740.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 450,740.3333 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 | 1,352,221 | |
| -1 | -1,352,221 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,352,221 ÷ 4 = 338,055.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 338,055.25 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 | 1,352,221 | |
| -1 | 1,352,221 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 41 | 43 | 59 | 533 | 559 | 767 | 1,763 | 2,419 | 2,537 | 22,919 | 31,447 | 32,981 | 104,017 | 1,352,221 |
| -1 | -13 | -41 | -43 | -59 | -533 | -559 | -767 | -1,763 | -2,419 | -2,537 | -22,919 | -31,447 | -32,981 | -104,017 | -1,352,221 |
