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 3,091,039, 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 | 3,091,039 | |
| -1 | -3,091,039 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,091,039.
Example:
1 x 3,091,039 = 3,091,039
and
-1 x -3,091,039 = 3,091,039
Notice both answers equal 3,091,039
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,091,039 and divide it by 2:
3,091,039 ÷ 2 = 1,545,519.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,545,519.5 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 | 3,091,039 | |
| -1 | -3,091,039 |
Now, we try dividing 3,091,039 by 3:
3,091,039 ÷ 3 = 1,030,346.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,030,346.3333 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 | 3,091,039 | |
| -1 | -3,091,039 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,091,039 ÷ 4 = 772,759.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 772,759.75 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 | 3,091,039 | |
| -1 | 3,091,039 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 23 | 73 | 161 | 263 | 511 | 1,679 | 1,841 | 6,049 | 11,753 | 19,199 | 42,343 | 134,393 | 441,577 | 3,091,039 |
| -1 | -7 | -23 | -73 | -161 | -263 | -511 | -1,679 | -1,841 | -6,049 | -11,753 | -19,199 | -42,343 | -134,393 | -441,577 | -3,091,039 |
