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 3,445,435, 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 | 3,445,435 | |
| -1 | -3,445,435 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,445,435.
Example:
1 x 3,445,435 = 3,445,435
and
-1 x -3,445,435 = 3,445,435
Notice both answers equal 3,445,435
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,445,435 and divide it by 2:
3,445,435 ÷ 2 = 1,722,717.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,722,717.5 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 | 3,445,435 | |
| -1 | -3,445,435 |
Now, we try dividing 3,445,435 by 3:
3,445,435 ÷ 3 = 1,148,478.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,148,478.3333 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 | 3,445,435 | |
| -1 | -3,445,435 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,445,435 ÷ 4 = 861,358.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 861,358.75 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 | 3,445,435 | |
| -1 | 3,445,435 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 41 | 49 | 205 | 245 | 287 | 343 | 1,435 | 1,715 | 2,009 | 2,401 | 10,045 | 12,005 | 14,063 | 16,807 | 70,315 | 84,035 | 98,441 | 492,205 | 689,087 | 3,445,435 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -41 | -49 | -205 | -245 | -287 | -343 | -1,435 | -1,715 | -2,009 | -2,401 | -10,045 | -12,005 | -14,063 | -16,807 | -70,315 | -84,035 | -98,441 | -492,205 | -689,087 | -3,445,435 |
