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 2,849,825, 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 | 2,849,825 | |
| -1 | -2,849,825 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 2,849,825.
Example:
1 x 2,849,825 = 2,849,825
and
-1 x -2,849,825 = 2,849,825
Notice both answers equal 2,849,825
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 2,849,825 and divide it by 2:
2,849,825 ÷ 2 = 1,424,912.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,424,912.5 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 | 2,849,825 | |
| -1 | -2,849,825 |
Now, we try dividing 2,849,825 by 3:
2,849,825 ÷ 3 = 949,941.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 949,941.6667 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 | 2,849,825 | |
| -1 | -2,849,825 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
2,849,825 ÷ 4 = 712,456.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 712,456.25 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 | 2,849,825 | |
| -1 | 2,849,825 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 43 | 55 | 215 | 241 | 275 | 473 | 1,075 | 1,205 | 2,365 | 2,651 | 6,025 | 10,363 | 11,825 | 13,255 | 51,815 | 66,275 | 113,993 | 259,075 | 569,965 | 2,849,825 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -43 | -55 | -215 | -241 | -275 | -473 | -1,075 | -1,205 | -2,365 | -2,651 | -6,025 | -10,363 | -11,825 | -13,255 | -51,815 | -66,275 | -113,993 | -259,075 | -569,965 | -2,849,825 |
