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 1,610,035, 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 | 1,610,035 | |
| -1 | -1,610,035 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,610,035.
Example:
1 x 1,610,035 = 1,610,035
and
-1 x -1,610,035 = 1,610,035
Notice both answers equal 1,610,035
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,610,035 and divide it by 2:
1,610,035 ÷ 2 = 805,017.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 805,017.5 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 | 1,610,035 | |
| -1 | -1,610,035 |
Now, we try dividing 1,610,035 by 3:
1,610,035 ÷ 3 = 536,678.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 536,678.3333 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 | 1,610,035 | |
| -1 | -1,610,035 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,610,035 ÷ 4 = 402,508.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 402,508.75 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 | 1,610,035 | |
| -1 | 1,610,035 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 157 | 293 | 785 | 1,099 | 1,465 | 2,051 | 5,495 | 10,255 | 46,001 | 230,005 | 322,007 | 1,610,035 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -157 | -293 | -785 | -1,099 | -1,465 | -2,051 | -5,495 | -10,255 | -46,001 | -230,005 | -322,007 | -1,610,035 |
