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 423,775, 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 | 423,775 | |
| -1 | -423,775 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 423,775.
Example:
1 x 423,775 = 423,775
and
-1 x -423,775 = 423,775
Notice both answers equal 423,775
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 423,775 and divide it by 2:
423,775 ÷ 2 = 211,887.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 211,887.5 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 | 423,775 | |
| -1 | -423,775 |
Now, we try dividing 423,775 by 3:
423,775 ÷ 3 = 141,258.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 141,258.3333 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 | 423,775 | |
| -1 | -423,775 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
423,775 ÷ 4 = 105,943.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 105,943.75 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 | 423,775 | |
| -1 | 423,775 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 23 | 25 | 55 | 67 | 115 | 253 | 275 | 335 | 575 | 737 | 1,265 | 1,541 | 1,675 | 3,685 | 6,325 | 7,705 | 16,951 | 18,425 | 38,525 | 84,755 | 423,775 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -23 | -25 | -55 | -67 | -115 | -253 | -275 | -335 | -575 | -737 | -1,265 | -1,541 | -1,675 | -3,685 | -6,325 | -7,705 | -16,951 | -18,425 | -38,525 | -84,755 | -423,775 |
