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 1,743,599, 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 | 1,743,599 | |
| -1 | -1,743,599 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,743,599.
Example:
1 x 1,743,599 = 1,743,599
and
-1 x -1,743,599 = 1,743,599
Notice both answers equal 1,743,599
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,743,599 and divide it by 2:
1,743,599 ÷ 2 = 871,799.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 871,799.5 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 | 1,743,599 | |
| -1 | -1,743,599 |
Now, we try dividing 1,743,599 by 3:
1,743,599 ÷ 3 = 581,199.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 581,199.6667 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 | 1,743,599 | |
| -1 | -1,743,599 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,743,599 ÷ 4 = 435,899.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 435,899.75 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 | 1,743,599 | |
| -1 | 1,743,599 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 89 | 137 | 143 | 979 | 1,157 | 1,507 | 1,781 | 12,193 | 12,727 | 19,591 | 134,123 | 158,509 | 1,743,599 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -89 | -137 | -143 | -979 | -1,157 | -1,507 | -1,781 | -12,193 | -12,727 | -19,591 | -134,123 | -158,509 | -1,743,599 |
