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 1,840,811, 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 | 1,840,811 | |
| -1 | -1,840,811 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,840,811.
Example:
1 x 1,840,811 = 1,840,811
and
-1 x -1,840,811 = 1,840,811
Notice both answers equal 1,840,811
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,840,811 and divide it by 2:
1,840,811 ÷ 2 = 920,405.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 920,405.5 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 | 1,840,811 | |
| -1 | -1,840,811 |
Now, we try dividing 1,840,811 by 3:
1,840,811 ÷ 3 = 613,603.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 613,603.6667 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 | 1,840,811 | |
| -1 | -1,840,811 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,840,811 ÷ 4 = 460,202.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 460,202.75 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 | 1,840,811 | |
| -1 | 1,840,811 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 31 | 119 | 217 | 499 | 527 | 3,493 | 3,689 | 8,483 | 15,469 | 59,381 | 108,283 | 262,973 | 1,840,811 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -31 | -119 | -217 | -499 | -527 | -3,493 | -3,689 | -8,483 | -15,469 | -59,381 | -108,283 | -262,973 | -1,840,811 |
