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 3,402,707, 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 | 3,402,707 | |
| -1 | -3,402,707 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,402,707.
Example:
1 x 3,402,707 = 3,402,707
and
-1 x -3,402,707 = 3,402,707
Notice both answers equal 3,402,707
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,402,707 and divide it by 2:
3,402,707 ÷ 2 = 1,701,353.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,701,353.5 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 | 3,402,707 | |
| -1 | -3,402,707 |
Now, we try dividing 3,402,707 by 3:
3,402,707 ÷ 3 = 1,134,235.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,134,235.6667 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 | 3,402,707 | |
| -1 | -3,402,707 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,402,707 ÷ 4 = 850,676.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 850,676.75 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 | 3,402,707 | |
| -1 | 3,402,707 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 49 | 59 | 77 | 107 | 413 | 539 | 649 | 749 | 1,177 | 2,891 | 4,543 | 5,243 | 6,313 | 8,239 | 31,801 | 44,191 | 57,673 | 69,443 | 309,337 | 486,101 | 3,402,707 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -49 | -59 | -77 | -107 | -413 | -539 | -649 | -749 | -1,177 | -2,891 | -4,543 | -5,243 | -6,313 | -8,239 | -31,801 | -44,191 | -57,673 | -69,443 | -309,337 | -486,101 | -3,402,707 |
