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 3,530,219, 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 | 3,530,219 | |
| -1 | -3,530,219 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,530,219.
Example:
1 x 3,530,219 = 3,530,219
and
-1 x -3,530,219 = 3,530,219
Notice both answers equal 3,530,219
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,530,219 and divide it by 2:
3,530,219 ÷ 2 = 1,765,109.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,765,109.5 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 | 3,530,219 | |
| -1 | -3,530,219 |
Now, we try dividing 3,530,219 by 3:
3,530,219 ÷ 3 = 1,176,739.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,176,739.6667 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 | 3,530,219 | |
| -1 | -3,530,219 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,530,219 ÷ 4 = 882,554.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 882,554.75 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 | 3,530,219 | |
| -1 | 3,530,219 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 19 | 77 | 127 | 133 | 209 | 361 | 889 | 1,397 | 1,463 | 2,413 | 2,527 | 3,971 | 9,779 | 16,891 | 26,543 | 27,797 | 45,847 | 185,801 | 320,929 | 504,317 | 3,530,219 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -19 | -77 | -127 | -133 | -209 | -361 | -889 | -1,397 | -1,463 | -2,413 | -2,527 | -3,971 | -9,779 | -16,891 | -26,543 | -27,797 | -45,847 | -185,801 | -320,929 | -504,317 | -3,530,219 |
