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 3,292,975, 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 | 3,292,975 | |
| -1 | -3,292,975 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,292,975.
Example:
1 x 3,292,975 = 3,292,975
and
-1 x -3,292,975 = 3,292,975
Notice both answers equal 3,292,975
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,292,975 and divide it by 2:
3,292,975 ÷ 2 = 1,646,487.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,646,487.5 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 | 3,292,975 | |
| -1 | -3,292,975 |
Now, we try dividing 3,292,975 by 3:
3,292,975 ÷ 3 = 1,097,658.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,097,658.3333 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 | 3,292,975 | |
| -1 | -3,292,975 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,292,975 ÷ 4 = 823,243.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 823,243.75 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 | 3,292,975 | |
| -1 | 3,292,975 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 31 | 35 | 155 | 175 | 217 | 607 | 775 | 1,085 | 3,035 | 4,249 | 5,425 | 15,175 | 18,817 | 21,245 | 94,085 | 106,225 | 131,719 | 470,425 | 658,595 | 3,292,975 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -31 | -35 | -155 | -175 | -217 | -607 | -775 | -1,085 | -3,035 | -4,249 | -5,425 | -15,175 | -18,817 | -21,245 | -94,085 | -106,225 | -131,719 | -470,425 | -658,595 | -3,292,975 |
