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 436,205, 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 | 436,205 | |
| -1 | -436,205 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 436,205.
Example:
1 x 436,205 = 436,205
and
-1 x -436,205 = 436,205
Notice both answers equal 436,205
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 436,205 and divide it by 2:
436,205 ÷ 2 = 218,102.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 218,102.5 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 | 436,205 | |
| -1 | -436,205 |
Now, we try dividing 436,205 by 3:
436,205 ÷ 3 = 145,401.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 145,401.6667 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 | 436,205 | |
| -1 | -436,205 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
436,205 ÷ 4 = 109,051.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 109,051.25 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 | 436,205 | |
| -1 | 436,205 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 11 | 35 | 55 | 77 | 103 | 121 | 385 | 515 | 605 | 721 | 847 | 1,133 | 3,605 | 4,235 | 5,665 | 7,931 | 12,463 | 39,655 | 62,315 | 87,241 | 436,205 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -11 | -35 | -55 | -77 | -103 | -121 | -385 | -515 | -605 | -721 | -847 | -1,133 | -3,605 | -4,235 | -5,665 | -7,931 | -12,463 | -39,655 | -62,315 | -87,241 | -436,205 |
