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 3,266,263, 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 | 3,266,263 | |
| -1 | -3,266,263 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,266,263.
Example:
1 x 3,266,263 = 3,266,263
and
-1 x -3,266,263 = 3,266,263
Notice both answers equal 3,266,263
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,266,263 and divide it by 2:
3,266,263 ÷ 2 = 1,633,131.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,633,131.5 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 | 3,266,263 | |
| -1 | -3,266,263 |
Now, we try dividing 3,266,263 by 3:
3,266,263 ÷ 3 = 1,088,754.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,088,754.3333 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 | 3,266,263 | |
| -1 | -3,266,263 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,266,263 ÷ 4 = 816,565.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 816,565.75 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 | 3,266,263 | |
| -1 | 3,266,263 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 13 | 77 | 91 | 143 | 169 | 251 | 1,001 | 1,183 | 1,757 | 1,859 | 2,761 | 3,263 | 13,013 | 19,327 | 22,841 | 35,893 | 42,419 | 251,251 | 296,933 | 466,609 | 3,266,263 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -13 | -77 | -91 | -143 | -169 | -251 | -1,001 | -1,183 | -1,757 | -1,859 | -2,761 | -3,263 | -13,013 | -19,327 | -22,841 | -35,893 | -42,419 | -251,251 | -296,933 | -466,609 | -3,266,263 |
