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 362,425, 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 | 362,425 | |
| -1 | -362,425 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 362,425.
Example:
1 x 362,425 = 362,425
and
-1 x -362,425 = 362,425
Notice both answers equal 362,425
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 362,425 and divide it by 2:
362,425 ÷ 2 = 181,212.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 181,212.5 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 | 362,425 | |
| -1 | -362,425 |
Now, we try dividing 362,425 by 3:
362,425 ÷ 3 = 120,808.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 120,808.3333 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 | 362,425 | |
| -1 | -362,425 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
362,425 ÷ 4 = 90,606.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 90,606.25 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 | 362,425 | |
| -1 | 362,425 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 19 | 25 | 35 | 95 | 109 | 133 | 175 | 475 | 545 | 665 | 763 | 2,071 | 2,725 | 3,325 | 3,815 | 10,355 | 14,497 | 19,075 | 51,775 | 72,485 | 362,425 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -19 | -25 | -35 | -95 | -109 | -133 | -175 | -475 | -545 | -665 | -763 | -2,071 | -2,725 | -3,325 | -3,815 | -10,355 | -14,497 | -19,075 | -51,775 | -72,485 | -362,425 |
