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 3,243,295, 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 | 3,243,295 | |
| -1 | -3,243,295 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,243,295.
Example:
1 x 3,243,295 = 3,243,295
and
-1 x -3,243,295 = 3,243,295
Notice both answers equal 3,243,295
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,243,295 and divide it by 2:
3,243,295 ÷ 2 = 1,621,647.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,621,647.5 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 | 3,243,295 | |
| -1 | -3,243,295 |
Now, we try dividing 3,243,295 by 3:
3,243,295 ÷ 3 = 1,081,098.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,081,098.3333 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 | 3,243,295 | |
| -1 | -3,243,295 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,243,295 ÷ 4 = 810,823.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 810,823.75 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 | 3,243,295 | |
| -1 | 3,243,295 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 109 | 541 | 545 | 1,199 | 2,705 | 5,951 | 5,995 | 29,755 | 58,969 | 294,845 | 648,659 | 3,243,295 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -109 | -541 | -545 | -1,199 | -2,705 | -5,951 | -5,995 | -29,755 | -58,969 | -294,845 | -648,659 | -3,243,295 |
