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 365,585, 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 | 365,585 | |
| -1 | -365,585 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 365,585.
Example:
1 x 365,585 = 365,585
and
-1 x -365,585 = 365,585
Notice both answers equal 365,585
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 365,585 and divide it by 2:
365,585 ÷ 2 = 182,792.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 182,792.5 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 | 365,585 | |
| -1 | -365,585 |
Now, we try dividing 365,585 by 3:
365,585 ÷ 3 = 121,861.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 121,861.6667 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 | 365,585 | |
| -1 | -365,585 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
365,585 ÷ 4 = 91,396.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 91,396.25 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 | 365,585 | |
| -1 | 365,585 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 17 | 23 | 55 | 85 | 115 | 187 | 253 | 289 | 391 | 935 | 1,265 | 1,445 | 1,955 | 3,179 | 4,301 | 6,647 | 15,895 | 21,505 | 33,235 | 73,117 | 365,585 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -17 | -23 | -55 | -85 | -115 | -187 | -253 | -289 | -391 | -935 | -1,265 | -1,445 | -1,955 | -3,179 | -4,301 | -6,647 | -15,895 | -21,505 | -33,235 | -73,117 | -365,585 |
