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 3,527,303, 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 | 3,527,303 | |
| -1 | -3,527,303 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,527,303.
Example:
1 x 3,527,303 = 3,527,303
and
-1 x -3,527,303 = 3,527,303
Notice both answers equal 3,527,303
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,527,303 and divide it by 2:
3,527,303 ÷ 2 = 1,763,651.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,763,651.5 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 | 3,527,303 | |
| -1 | -3,527,303 |
Now, we try dividing 3,527,303 by 3:
3,527,303 ÷ 3 = 1,175,767.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,175,767.6667 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 | 3,527,303 | |
| -1 | -3,527,303 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,527,303 ÷ 4 = 881,825.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 881,825.75 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 | 3,527,303 | |
| -1 | 3,527,303 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 23 | 47 | 251 | 299 | 611 | 1,081 | 3,263 | 5,773 | 11,797 | 14,053 | 75,049 | 153,361 | 271,331 | 3,527,303 |
| -1 | -13 | -23 | -47 | -251 | -299 | -611 | -1,081 | -3,263 | -5,773 | -11,797 | -14,053 | -75,049 | -153,361 | -271,331 | -3,527,303 |
