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 3,330,301, 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 | 3,330,301 | |
| -1 | -3,330,301 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,330,301.
Example:
1 x 3,330,301 = 3,330,301
and
-1 x -3,330,301 = 3,330,301
Notice both answers equal 3,330,301
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,330,301 and divide it by 2:
3,330,301 ÷ 2 = 1,665,150.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,665,150.5 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 | 3,330,301 | |
| -1 | -3,330,301 |
Now, we try dividing 3,330,301 by 3:
3,330,301 ÷ 3 = 1,110,100.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,110,100.3333 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 | 3,330,301 | |
| -1 | -3,330,301 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,330,301 ÷ 4 = 832,575.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 832,575.25 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 | 3,330,301 | |
| -1 | 3,330,301 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 19 | 97 | 139 | 247 | 1,261 | 1,807 | 1,843 | 2,641 | 13,483 | 23,959 | 34,333 | 175,279 | 256,177 | 3,330,301 |
| -1 | -13 | -19 | -97 | -139 | -247 | -1,261 | -1,807 | -1,843 | -2,641 | -13,483 | -23,959 | -34,333 | -175,279 | -256,177 | -3,330,301 |
