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 431,795, 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 | 431,795 | |
| -1 | -431,795 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 431,795.
Example:
1 x 431,795 = 431,795
and
-1 x -431,795 = 431,795
Notice both answers equal 431,795
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 431,795 and divide it by 2:
431,795 ÷ 2 = 215,897.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 215,897.5 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 | 431,795 | |
| -1 | -431,795 |
Now, we try dividing 431,795 by 3:
431,795 ÷ 3 = 143,931.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 143,931.6667 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 | 431,795 | |
| -1 | -431,795 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
431,795 ÷ 4 = 107,948.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 107,948.75 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 | 431,795 | |
| -1 | 431,795 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 13 | 35 | 65 | 73 | 91 | 169 | 365 | 455 | 511 | 845 | 949 | 1,183 | 2,555 | 4,745 | 5,915 | 6,643 | 12,337 | 33,215 | 61,685 | 86,359 | 431,795 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -13 | -35 | -65 | -73 | -91 | -169 | -365 | -455 | -511 | -845 | -949 | -1,183 | -2,555 | -4,745 | -5,915 | -6,643 | -12,337 | -33,215 | -61,685 | -86,359 | -431,795 |
