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 6,159,065, 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 | 6,159,065 | |
| -1 | -6,159,065 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,159,065.
Example:
1 x 6,159,065 = 6,159,065
and
-1 x -6,159,065 = 6,159,065
Notice both answers equal 6,159,065
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,159,065 and divide it by 2:
6,159,065 ÷ 2 = 3,079,532.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,079,532.5 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 | 6,159,065 | |
| -1 | -6,159,065 |
Now, we try dividing 6,159,065 by 3:
6,159,065 ÷ 3 = 2,053,021.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,053,021.6667 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 | 6,159,065 | |
| -1 | -6,159,065 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,159,065 ÷ 4 = 1,539,766.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,539,766.25 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 | 6,159,065 | |
| -1 | 6,159,065 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 113 | 565 | 991 | 1,243 | 4,955 | 6,215 | 10,901 | 54,505 | 111,983 | 559,915 | 1,231,813 | 6,159,065 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -113 | -565 | -991 | -1,243 | -4,955 | -6,215 | -10,901 | -54,505 | -111,983 | -559,915 | -1,231,813 | -6,159,065 |
