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 1,405,943, 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 | 1,405,943 | |
| -1 | -1,405,943 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,405,943.
Example:
1 x 1,405,943 = 1,405,943
and
-1 x -1,405,943 = 1,405,943
Notice both answers equal 1,405,943
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,405,943 and divide it by 2:
1,405,943 ÷ 2 = 702,971.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 702,971.5 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 | 1,405,943 | |
| -1 | -1,405,943 |
Now, we try dividing 1,405,943 by 3:
1,405,943 ÷ 3 = 468,647.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 468,647.6667 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 | 1,405,943 | |
| -1 | -1,405,943 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,405,943 ÷ 4 = 351,485.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 351,485.75 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 | 1,405,943 | |
| -1 | 1,405,943 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 19 | 31 | 77 | 133 | 209 | 217 | 341 | 589 | 961 | 1,463 | 2,387 | 4,123 | 6,479 | 6,727 | 10,571 | 18,259 | 45,353 | 73,997 | 127,813 | 200,849 | 1,405,943 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -19 | -31 | -77 | -133 | -209 | -217 | -341 | -589 | -961 | -1,463 | -2,387 | -4,123 | -6,479 | -6,727 | -10,571 | -18,259 | -45,353 | -73,997 | -127,813 | -200,849 | -1,405,943 |
