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 1,445,323, 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 | 1,445,323 | |
| -1 | -1,445,323 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,445,323.
Example:
1 x 1,445,323 = 1,445,323
and
-1 x -1,445,323 = 1,445,323
Notice both answers equal 1,445,323
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,445,323 and divide it by 2:
1,445,323 ÷ 2 = 722,661.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 722,661.5 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 | 1,445,323 | |
| -1 | -1,445,323 |
Now, we try dividing 1,445,323 by 3:
1,445,323 ÷ 3 = 481,774.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 481,774.3333 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 | 1,445,323 | |
| -1 | -1,445,323 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,445,323 ÷ 4 = 361,330.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 361,330.75 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 | 1,445,323 | |
| -1 | 1,445,323 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 17 | 59 | 131 | 187 | 649 | 1,003 | 1,441 | 2,227 | 7,729 | 11,033 | 24,497 | 85,019 | 131,393 | 1,445,323 |
| -1 | -11 | -17 | -59 | -131 | -187 | -649 | -1,003 | -1,441 | -2,227 | -7,729 | -11,033 | -24,497 | -85,019 | -131,393 | -1,445,323 |
