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 2,921,875, 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 | 2,921,875 | |
| -1 | -2,921,875 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 2,921,875.
Example:
1 x 2,921,875 = 2,921,875
and
-1 x -2,921,875 = 2,921,875
Notice both answers equal 2,921,875
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 2,921,875 and divide it by 2:
2,921,875 ÷ 2 = 1,460,937.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,460,937.5 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 | 2,921,875 | |
| -1 | -2,921,875 |
Now, we try dividing 2,921,875 by 3:
2,921,875 ÷ 3 = 973,958.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 973,958.3333 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 | 2,921,875 | |
| -1 | -2,921,875 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
2,921,875 ÷ 4 = 730,468.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 730,468.75 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 | 2,921,875 | |
| -1 | 2,921,875 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 17 | 25 | 55 | 85 | 125 | 187 | 275 | 425 | 625 | 935 | 1,375 | 2,125 | 3,125 | 4,675 | 6,875 | 10,625 | 15,625 | 23,375 | 34,375 | 53,125 | 116,875 | 171,875 | 265,625 | 584,375 | 2,921,875 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -17 | -25 | -55 | -85 | -125 | -187 | -275 | -425 | -625 | -935 | -1,375 | -2,125 | -3,125 | -4,675 | -6,875 | -10,625 | -15,625 | -23,375 | -34,375 | -53,125 | -116,875 | -171,875 | -265,625 | -584,375 | -2,921,875 |
