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 6,031,165, 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 | 6,031,165 | |
| -1 | -6,031,165 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,031,165.
Example:
1 x 6,031,165 = 6,031,165
and
-1 x -6,031,165 = 6,031,165
Notice both answers equal 6,031,165
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,031,165 and divide it by 2:
6,031,165 ÷ 2 = 3,015,582.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,015,582.5 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 | 6,031,165 | |
| -1 | -6,031,165 |
Now, we try dividing 6,031,165 by 3:
6,031,165 ÷ 3 = 2,010,388.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,010,388.3333 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 | 6,031,165 | |
| -1 | -6,031,165 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,031,165 ÷ 4 = 1,507,791.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,507,791.25 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 | 6,031,165 | |
| -1 | 6,031,165 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 49 | 103 | 239 | 245 | 515 | 721 | 1,195 | 1,673 | 3,605 | 5,047 | 8,365 | 11,711 | 24,617 | 25,235 | 58,555 | 123,085 | 172,319 | 861,595 | 1,206,233 | 6,031,165 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -49 | -103 | -239 | -245 | -515 | -721 | -1,195 | -1,673 | -3,605 | -5,047 | -8,365 | -11,711 | -24,617 | -25,235 | -58,555 | -123,085 | -172,319 | -861,595 | -1,206,233 | -6,031,165 |
