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 1,859,665, 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 | 1,859,665 | |
| -1 | -1,859,665 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,859,665.
Example:
1 x 1,859,665 = 1,859,665
and
-1 x -1,859,665 = 1,859,665
Notice both answers equal 1,859,665
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,859,665 and divide it by 2:
1,859,665 ÷ 2 = 929,832.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 929,832.5 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 | 1,859,665 | |
| -1 | -1,859,665 |
Now, we try dividing 1,859,665 by 3:
1,859,665 ÷ 3 = 619,888.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 619,888.3333 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 | 1,859,665 | |
| -1 | -1,859,665 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,859,665 ÷ 4 = 464,916.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 464,916.25 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 | 1,859,665 | |
| -1 | 1,859,665 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 103 | 115 | 157 | 515 | 785 | 2,369 | 3,611 | 11,845 | 16,171 | 18,055 | 80,855 | 371,933 | 1,859,665 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -103 | -115 | -157 | -515 | -785 | -2,369 | -3,611 | -11,845 | -16,171 | -18,055 | -80,855 | -371,933 | -1,859,665 |
