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 3,560,425, 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 | 3,560,425 | |
| -1 | -3,560,425 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,560,425.
Example:
1 x 3,560,425 = 3,560,425
and
-1 x -3,560,425 = 3,560,425
Notice both answers equal 3,560,425
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,560,425 and divide it by 2:
3,560,425 ÷ 2 = 1,780,212.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,780,212.5 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 | 3,560,425 | |
| -1 | -3,560,425 |
Now, we try dividing 3,560,425 by 3:
3,560,425 ÷ 3 = 1,186,808.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,186,808.3333 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 | 3,560,425 | |
| -1 | -3,560,425 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,560,425 ÷ 4 = 890,106.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 890,106.25 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 | 3,560,425 | |
| -1 | 3,560,425 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 55 | 107 | 121 | 275 | 535 | 605 | 1,177 | 1,331 | 2,675 | 3,025 | 5,885 | 6,655 | 12,947 | 29,425 | 33,275 | 64,735 | 142,417 | 323,675 | 712,085 | 3,560,425 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -55 | -107 | -121 | -275 | -535 | -605 | -1,177 | -1,331 | -2,675 | -3,025 | -5,885 | -6,655 | -12,947 | -29,425 | -33,275 | -64,735 | -142,417 | -323,675 | -712,085 | -3,560,425 |
