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 1,473,241, 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 | 1,473,241 | |
| -1 | -1,473,241 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,473,241.
Example:
1 x 1,473,241 = 1,473,241
and
-1 x -1,473,241 = 1,473,241
Notice both answers equal 1,473,241
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,473,241 and divide it by 2:
1,473,241 ÷ 2 = 736,620.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 736,620.5 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 | 1,473,241 | |
| -1 | -1,473,241 |
Now, we try dividing 1,473,241 by 3:
1,473,241 ÷ 3 = 491,080.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 491,080.3333 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 | 1,473,241 | |
| -1 | -1,473,241 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,473,241 ÷ 4 = 368,310.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 368,310.25 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 | 1,473,241 | |
| -1 | 1,473,241 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 19 | 53 | 77 | 133 | 209 | 361 | 371 | 583 | 1,007 | 1,463 | 2,527 | 3,971 | 4,081 | 7,049 | 11,077 | 19,133 | 27,797 | 77,539 | 133,931 | 210,463 | 1,473,241 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -19 | -53 | -77 | -133 | -209 | -361 | -371 | -583 | -1,007 | -1,463 | -2,527 | -3,971 | -4,081 | -7,049 | -11,077 | -19,133 | -27,797 | -77,539 | -133,931 | -210,463 | -1,473,241 |
