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 6,262,039, 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 | 6,262,039 | |
| -1 | -6,262,039 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,262,039.
Example:
1 x 6,262,039 = 6,262,039
and
-1 x -6,262,039 = 6,262,039
Notice both answers equal 6,262,039
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,262,039 and divide it by 2:
6,262,039 ÷ 2 = 3,131,019.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,131,019.5 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 | 6,262,039 | |
| -1 | -6,262,039 |
Now, we try dividing 6,262,039 by 3:
6,262,039 ÷ 3 = 2,087,346.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,087,346.3333 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 | 6,262,039 | |
| -1 | -6,262,039 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,262,039 ÷ 4 = 1,565,509.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,565,509.75 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 | 6,262,039 | |
| -1 | 6,262,039 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 133 | 197 | 239 | 1,379 | 1,673 | 3,743 | 4,541 | 26,201 | 31,787 | 47,083 | 329,581 | 894,577 | 6,262,039 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -133 | -197 | -239 | -1,379 | -1,673 | -3,743 | -4,541 | -26,201 | -31,787 | -47,083 | -329,581 | -894,577 | -6,262,039 |
