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 3,445,403, 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 | 3,445,403 | |
| -1 | -3,445,403 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,445,403.
Example:
1 x 3,445,403 = 3,445,403
and
-1 x -3,445,403 = 3,445,403
Notice both answers equal 3,445,403
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,445,403 and divide it by 2:
3,445,403 ÷ 2 = 1,722,701.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,722,701.5 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 | 3,445,403 | |
| -1 | -3,445,403 |
Now, we try dividing 3,445,403 by 3:
3,445,403 ÷ 3 = 1,148,467.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,148,467.6667 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 | 3,445,403 | |
| -1 | -3,445,403 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,445,403 ÷ 4 = 861,350.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 861,350.75 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 | 3,445,403 | |
| -1 | 3,445,403 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 19 | 29 | 37 | 169 | 247 | 377 | 481 | 551 | 703 | 1,073 | 3,211 | 4,901 | 6,253 | 7,163 | 9,139 | 13,949 | 20,387 | 93,119 | 118,807 | 181,337 | 265,031 | 3,445,403 |
| -1 | -13 | -19 | -29 | -37 | -169 | -247 | -377 | -481 | -551 | -703 | -1,073 | -3,211 | -4,901 | -6,253 | -7,163 | -9,139 | -13,949 | -20,387 | -93,119 | -118,807 | -181,337 | -265,031 | -3,445,403 |
