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 2,425,675, 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 | 2,425,675 | |
| -1 | -2,425,675 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 2,425,675.
Example:
1 x 2,425,675 = 2,425,675
and
-1 x -2,425,675 = 2,425,675
Notice both answers equal 2,425,675
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 2,425,675 and divide it by 2:
2,425,675 ÷ 2 = 1,212,837.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,212,837.5 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 | 2,425,675 | |
| -1 | -2,425,675 |
Now, we try dividing 2,425,675 by 3:
2,425,675 ÷ 3 = 808,558.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 808,558.3333 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 | 2,425,675 | |
| -1 | -2,425,675 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
2,425,675 ÷ 4 = 606,418.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 606,418.75 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 | 2,425,675 | |
| -1 | 2,425,675 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 83 | 167 | 175 | 415 | 581 | 835 | 1,169 | 2,075 | 2,905 | 4,175 | 5,845 | 13,861 | 14,525 | 29,225 | 69,305 | 97,027 | 346,525 | 485,135 | 2,425,675 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -83 | -167 | -175 | -415 | -581 | -835 | -1,169 | -2,075 | -2,905 | -4,175 | -5,845 | -13,861 | -14,525 | -29,225 | -69,305 | -97,027 | -346,525 | -485,135 | -2,425,675 |
