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 3,202,925, 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 | 3,202,925 | |
| -1 | -3,202,925 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,202,925.
Example:
1 x 3,202,925 = 3,202,925
and
-1 x -3,202,925 = 3,202,925
Notice both answers equal 3,202,925
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,202,925 and divide it by 2:
3,202,925 ÷ 2 = 1,601,462.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,601,462.5 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 | 3,202,925 | |
| -1 | -3,202,925 |
Now, we try dividing 3,202,925 by 3:
3,202,925 ÷ 3 = 1,067,641.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,067,641.6667 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 | 3,202,925 | |
| -1 | -3,202,925 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,202,925 ÷ 4 = 800,731.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 800,731.25 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 | 3,202,925 | |
| -1 | 3,202,925 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 19 | 25 | 55 | 95 | 209 | 275 | 475 | 613 | 1,045 | 3,065 | 5,225 | 6,743 | 11,647 | 15,325 | 33,715 | 58,235 | 128,117 | 168,575 | 291,175 | 640,585 | 3,202,925 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -19 | -25 | -55 | -95 | -209 | -275 | -475 | -613 | -1,045 | -3,065 | -5,225 | -6,743 | -11,647 | -15,325 | -33,715 | -58,235 | -128,117 | -168,575 | -291,175 | -640,585 | -3,202,925 |
