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 502,075, 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 | 502,075 | |
| -1 | -502,075 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 502,075.
Example:
1 x 502,075 = 502,075
and
-1 x -502,075 = 502,075
Notice both answers equal 502,075
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 502,075 and divide it by 2:
502,075 ÷ 2 = 251,037.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 251,037.5 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 | 502,075 | |
| -1 | -502,075 |
Now, we try dividing 502,075 by 3:
502,075 ÷ 3 = 167,358.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 167,358.3333 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 | 502,075 | |
| -1 | -502,075 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
502,075 ÷ 4 = 125,518.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 125,518.75 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 | 502,075 | |
| -1 | 502,075 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 19 | 25 | 35 | 95 | 133 | 151 | 175 | 475 | 665 | 755 | 1,057 | 2,869 | 3,325 | 3,775 | 5,285 | 14,345 | 20,083 | 26,425 | 71,725 | 100,415 | 502,075 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -19 | -25 | -35 | -95 | -133 | -151 | -175 | -475 | -665 | -755 | -1,057 | -2,869 | -3,325 | -3,775 | -5,285 | -14,345 | -20,083 | -26,425 | -71,725 | -100,415 | -502,075 |
