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 1,356,655, 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 | 1,356,655 | |
| -1 | -1,356,655 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,356,655.
Example:
1 x 1,356,655 = 1,356,655
and
-1 x -1,356,655 = 1,356,655
Notice both answers equal 1,356,655
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,356,655 and divide it by 2:
1,356,655 ÷ 2 = 678,327.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 678,327.5 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 | 1,356,655 | |
| -1 | -1,356,655 |
Now, we try dividing 1,356,655 by 3:
1,356,655 ÷ 3 = 452,218.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 452,218.3333 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 | 1,356,655 | |
| -1 | -1,356,655 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,356,655 ÷ 4 = 339,163.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 339,163.75 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 | 1,356,655 | |
| -1 | 1,356,655 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 47 | 115 | 235 | 251 | 1,081 | 1,255 | 5,405 | 5,773 | 11,797 | 28,865 | 58,985 | 271,331 | 1,356,655 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -47 | -115 | -235 | -251 | -1,081 | -1,255 | -5,405 | -5,773 | -11,797 | -28,865 | -58,985 | -271,331 | -1,356,655 |
