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 1,692,061, 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 | 1,692,061 | |
| -1 | -1,692,061 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,692,061.
Example:
1 x 1,692,061 = 1,692,061
and
-1 x -1,692,061 = 1,692,061
Notice both answers equal 1,692,061
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,692,061 and divide it by 2:
1,692,061 ÷ 2 = 846,030.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 846,030.5 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 | 1,692,061 | |
| -1 | -1,692,061 |
Now, we try dividing 1,692,061 by 3:
1,692,061 ÷ 3 = 564,020.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 564,020.3333 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 | 1,692,061 | |
| -1 | -1,692,061 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,692,061 ÷ 4 = 423,015.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 423,015.25 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 | 1,692,061 | |
| -1 | 1,692,061 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 59 | 119 | 241 | 413 | 1,003 | 1,687 | 4,097 | 7,021 | 14,219 | 28,679 | 99,533 | 241,723 | 1,692,061 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -59 | -119 | -241 | -413 | -1,003 | -1,687 | -4,097 | -7,021 | -14,219 | -28,679 | -99,533 | -241,723 | -1,692,061 |
