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 3,346,315, 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 | 3,346,315 | |
| -1 | -3,346,315 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,346,315.
Example:
1 x 3,346,315 = 3,346,315
and
-1 x -3,346,315 = 3,346,315
Notice both answers equal 3,346,315
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,346,315 and divide it by 2:
3,346,315 ÷ 2 = 1,673,157.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,673,157.5 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 | 3,346,315 | |
| -1 | -3,346,315 |
Now, we try dividing 3,346,315 by 3:
3,346,315 ÷ 3 = 1,115,438.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,115,438.3333 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 | 3,346,315 | |
| -1 | -3,346,315 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,346,315 ÷ 4 = 836,578.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 836,578.75 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 | 3,346,315 | |
| -1 | 3,346,315 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 67 | 335 | 469 | 1,427 | 2,345 | 7,135 | 9,989 | 49,945 | 95,609 | 478,045 | 669,263 | 3,346,315 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -67 | -335 | -469 | -1,427 | -2,345 | -7,135 | -9,989 | -49,945 | -95,609 | -478,045 | -669,263 | -3,346,315 |
