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 1,730,083, 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 | 1,730,083 | |
| -1 | -1,730,083 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,730,083.
Example:
1 x 1,730,083 = 1,730,083
and
-1 x -1,730,083 = 1,730,083
Notice both answers equal 1,730,083
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,730,083 and divide it by 2:
1,730,083 ÷ 2 = 865,041.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 865,041.5 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 | 1,730,083 | |
| -1 | -1,730,083 |
Now, we try dividing 1,730,083 by 3:
1,730,083 ÷ 3 = 576,694.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 576,694.3333 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 | 1,730,083 | |
| -1 | -1,730,083 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,730,083 ÷ 4 = 432,520.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 432,520.75 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 | 1,730,083 | |
| -1 | 1,730,083 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 23 | 37 | 107 | 437 | 703 | 851 | 2,033 | 2,461 | 3,959 | 16,169 | 46,759 | 75,221 | 91,057 | 1,730,083 |
| -1 | -19 | -23 | -37 | -107 | -437 | -703 | -851 | -2,033 | -2,461 | -3,959 | -16,169 | -46,759 | -75,221 | -91,057 | -1,730,083 |
