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 2,442,925, 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 | 2,442,925 | |
| -1 | -2,442,925 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 2,442,925.
Example:
1 x 2,442,925 = 2,442,925
and
-1 x -2,442,925 = 2,442,925
Notice both answers equal 2,442,925
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 2,442,925 and divide it by 2:
2,442,925 ÷ 2 = 1,221,462.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,221,462.5 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 | 2,442,925 | |
| -1 | -2,442,925 |
Now, we try dividing 2,442,925 by 3:
2,442,925 ÷ 3 = 814,308.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 814,308.3333 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 | 2,442,925 | |
| -1 | -2,442,925 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
2,442,925 ÷ 4 = 610,731.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 610,731.25 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 | 2,442,925 | |
| -1 | 2,442,925 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 25 | 37 | 95 | 139 | 185 | 475 | 695 | 703 | 925 | 2,641 | 3,475 | 3,515 | 5,143 | 13,205 | 17,575 | 25,715 | 66,025 | 97,717 | 128,575 | 488,585 | 2,442,925 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -25 | -37 | -95 | -139 | -185 | -475 | -695 | -703 | -925 | -2,641 | -3,475 | -3,515 | -5,143 | -13,205 | -17,575 | -25,715 | -66,025 | -97,717 | -128,575 | -488,585 | -2,442,925 |
