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 1,477,003, 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 | 1,477,003 | |
| -1 | -1,477,003 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,477,003.
Example:
1 x 1,477,003 = 1,477,003
and
-1 x -1,477,003 = 1,477,003
Notice both answers equal 1,477,003
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,477,003 and divide it by 2:
1,477,003 ÷ 2 = 738,501.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 738,501.5 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 | 1,477,003 | |
| -1 | -1,477,003 |
Now, we try dividing 1,477,003 by 3:
1,477,003 ÷ 3 = 492,334.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 492,334.3333 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 | 1,477,003 | |
| -1 | -1,477,003 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,477,003 ÷ 4 = 369,250.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 369,250.75 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 | 1,477,003 | |
| -1 | 1,477,003 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 19 | 37 | 191 | 209 | 407 | 703 | 2,101 | 3,629 | 7,067 | 7,733 | 39,919 | 77,737 | 134,273 | 1,477,003 |
| -1 | -11 | -19 | -37 | -191 | -209 | -407 | -703 | -2,101 | -3,629 | -7,067 | -7,733 | -39,919 | -77,737 | -134,273 | -1,477,003 |
