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 3,264,595, 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 | 3,264,595 | |
| -1 | -3,264,595 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,264,595.
Example:
1 x 3,264,595 = 3,264,595
and
-1 x -3,264,595 = 3,264,595
Notice both answers equal 3,264,595
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,264,595 and divide it by 2:
3,264,595 ÷ 2 = 1,632,297.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,632,297.5 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 | 3,264,595 | |
| -1 | -3,264,595 |
Now, we try dividing 3,264,595 by 3:
3,264,595 ÷ 3 = 1,088,198.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,088,198.3333 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 | 3,264,595 | |
| -1 | -3,264,595 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,264,595 ÷ 4 = 816,148.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 816,148.75 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 | 3,264,595 | |
| -1 | 3,264,595 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 85 | 193 | 199 | 965 | 995 | 3,281 | 3,383 | 16,405 | 16,915 | 38,407 | 192,035 | 652,919 | 3,264,595 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -85 | -193 | -199 | -965 | -995 | -3,281 | -3,383 | -16,405 | -16,915 | -38,407 | -192,035 | -652,919 | -3,264,595 |
