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 1,750,235, 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 | 1,750,235 | |
| -1 | -1,750,235 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,750,235.
Example:
1 x 1,750,235 = 1,750,235
and
-1 x -1,750,235 = 1,750,235
Notice both answers equal 1,750,235
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,750,235 and divide it by 2:
1,750,235 ÷ 2 = 875,117.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 875,117.5 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 | 1,750,235 | |
| -1 | -1,750,235 |
Now, we try dividing 1,750,235 by 3:
1,750,235 ÷ 3 = 583,411.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 583,411.6667 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 | 1,750,235 | |
| -1 | -1,750,235 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,750,235 ÷ 4 = 437,558.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 437,558.75 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 | 1,750,235 | |
| -1 | 1,750,235 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 59 | 85 | 295 | 349 | 1,003 | 1,745 | 5,015 | 5,933 | 20,591 | 29,665 | 102,955 | 350,047 | 1,750,235 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -59 | -85 | -295 | -349 | -1,003 | -1,745 | -5,015 | -5,933 | -20,591 | -29,665 | -102,955 | -350,047 | -1,750,235 |
