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 6,008,225, 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 | 6,008,225 | |
| -1 | -6,008,225 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,008,225.
Example:
1 x 6,008,225 = 6,008,225
and
-1 x -6,008,225 = 6,008,225
Notice both answers equal 6,008,225
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,008,225 and divide it by 2:
6,008,225 ÷ 2 = 3,004,112.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,004,112.5 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 | 6,008,225 | |
| -1 | -6,008,225 |
Now, we try dividing 6,008,225 by 3:
6,008,225 ÷ 3 = 2,002,741.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,002,741.6667 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 | 6,008,225 | |
| -1 | -6,008,225 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,008,225 ÷ 4 = 1,502,056.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,502,056.25 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 | 6,008,225 | |
| -1 | 6,008,225 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 25 | 67 | 85 | 211 | 335 | 425 | 1,055 | 1,139 | 1,675 | 3,587 | 5,275 | 5,695 | 14,137 | 17,935 | 28,475 | 70,685 | 89,675 | 240,329 | 353,425 | 1,201,645 | 6,008,225 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -25 | -67 | -85 | -211 | -335 | -425 | -1,055 | -1,139 | -1,675 | -3,587 | -5,275 | -5,695 | -14,137 | -17,935 | -28,475 | -70,685 | -89,675 | -240,329 | -353,425 | -1,201,645 | -6,008,225 |
