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 375,504, 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 | 375,504 | |
| -1 | -375,504 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 375,504.
Example:
1 x 375,504 = 375,504
and
-1 x -375,504 = 375,504
Notice both answers equal 375,504
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 375,504 and divide it by 2:
375,504 ÷ 2 = 187,752
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 187,752 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 2 | 187,752 | 375,504 | |
| -1 | -2 | -187,752 | -375,504 |
Now, we try dividing 375,504 by 3:
375,504 ÷ 3 = 125,168
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 125,168 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 125,168 | 187,752 | 375,504 | |
| -1 | -2 | -3 | -125,168 | -187,752 | -375,504 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
375,504 ÷ 4 = 93,876
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 93,876 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 93,876 | 125,168 | 187,752 | 375,504 | |
| -1 | -2 | -3 | -4 | -93,876 | -125,168 | -187,752 | 375,504 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 12 | 16 | 24 | 48 | 7,823 | 15,646 | 23,469 | 31,292 | 46,938 | 62,584 | 93,876 | 125,168 | 187,752 | 375,504 |
| -1 | -2 | -3 | -4 | -6 | -8 | -12 | -16 | -24 | -48 | -7,823 | -15,646 | -23,469 | -31,292 | -46,938 | -62,584 | -93,876 | -125,168 | -187,752 | -375,504 |
