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 325,975, 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 | 325,975 | |
| -1 | -325,975 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 325,975.
Example:
1 x 325,975 = 325,975
and
-1 x -325,975 = 325,975
Notice both answers equal 325,975
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 325,975 and divide it by 2:
325,975 ÷ 2 = 162,987.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 162,987.5 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 | 325,975 | |
| -1 | -325,975 |
Now, we try dividing 325,975 by 3:
325,975 ÷ 3 = 108,658.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 108,658.3333 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 | 325,975 | |
| -1 | -325,975 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
325,975 ÷ 4 = 81,493.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 81,493.75 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 | 325,975 | |
| -1 | 325,975 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 17 | 25 | 59 | 65 | 85 | 221 | 295 | 325 | 425 | 767 | 1,003 | 1,105 | 1,475 | 3,835 | 5,015 | 5,525 | 13,039 | 19,175 | 25,075 | 65,195 | 325,975 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -17 | -25 | -59 | -65 | -85 | -221 | -295 | -325 | -425 | -767 | -1,003 | -1,105 | -1,475 | -3,835 | -5,015 | -5,525 | -13,039 | -19,175 | -25,075 | -65,195 | -325,975 |
