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 6,434,585, 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 | 6,434,585 | |
| -1 | -6,434,585 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 6,434,585.
Example:
1 x 6,434,585 = 6,434,585
and
-1 x -6,434,585 = 6,434,585
Notice both answers equal 6,434,585
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 6,434,585 and divide it by 2:
6,434,585 ÷ 2 = 3,217,292.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,217,292.5 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 | 6,434,585 | |
| -1 | -6,434,585 |
Now, we try dividing 6,434,585 by 3:
6,434,585 ÷ 3 = 2,144,861.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,144,861.6667 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 | 6,434,585 | |
| -1 | -6,434,585 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
6,434,585 ÷ 4 = 1,608,646.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,608,646.25 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 | 6,434,585 | |
| -1 | 6,434,585 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 61 | 73 | 85 | 289 | 305 | 365 | 1,037 | 1,241 | 1,445 | 4,453 | 5,185 | 6,205 | 17,629 | 21,097 | 22,265 | 75,701 | 88,145 | 105,485 | 378,505 | 1,286,917 | 6,434,585 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -61 | -73 | -85 | -289 | -305 | -365 | -1,037 | -1,241 | -1,445 | -4,453 | -5,185 | -6,205 | -17,629 | -21,097 | -22,265 | -75,701 | -88,145 | -105,485 | -378,505 | -1,286,917 | -6,434,585 |
