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 1,575,665, 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 | 1,575,665 | |
| -1 | -1,575,665 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,575,665.
Example:
1 x 1,575,665 = 1,575,665
and
-1 x -1,575,665 = 1,575,665
Notice both answers equal 1,575,665
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,575,665 and divide it by 2:
1,575,665 ÷ 2 = 787,832.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 787,832.5 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 | 1,575,665 | |
| -1 | -1,575,665 |
Now, we try dividing 1,575,665 by 3:
1,575,665 ÷ 3 = 525,221.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 525,221.6667 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 | 1,575,665 | |
| -1 | -1,575,665 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,575,665 ÷ 4 = 393,916.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 393,916.25 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 | 1,575,665 | |
| -1 | 1,575,665 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 13 | 35 | 65 | 91 | 455 | 3,463 | 17,315 | 24,241 | 45,019 | 121,205 | 225,095 | 315,133 | 1,575,665 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -13 | -35 | -65 | -91 | -455 | -3,463 | -17,315 | -24,241 | -45,019 | -121,205 | -225,095 | -315,133 | -1,575,665 |
