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 3,441,035, 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 | 3,441,035 | |
| -1 | -3,441,035 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,441,035.
Example:
1 x 3,441,035 = 3,441,035
and
-1 x -3,441,035 = 3,441,035
Notice both answers equal 3,441,035
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,441,035 and divide it by 2:
3,441,035 ÷ 2 = 1,720,517.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,720,517.5 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 | 3,441,035 | |
| -1 | -3,441,035 |
Now, we try dividing 3,441,035 by 3:
3,441,035 ÷ 3 = 1,147,011.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,147,011.6667 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 | 3,441,035 | |
| -1 | -3,441,035 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,441,035 ÷ 4 = 860,258.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 860,258.75 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 | 3,441,035 | |
| -1 | 3,441,035 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 167 | 317 | 835 | 1,585 | 2,171 | 4,121 | 10,855 | 20,605 | 52,939 | 264,695 | 688,207 | 3,441,035 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -167 | -317 | -835 | -1,585 | -2,171 | -4,121 | -10,855 | -20,605 | -52,939 | -264,695 | -688,207 | -3,441,035 |
