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 710,875, 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 | 710,875 | |
| -1 | -710,875 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 710,875.
Example:
1 x 710,875 = 710,875
and
-1 x -710,875 = 710,875
Notice both answers equal 710,875
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 710,875 and divide it by 2:
710,875 ÷ 2 = 355,437.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 355,437.5 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 | 710,875 | |
| -1 | -710,875 |
Now, we try dividing 710,875 by 3:
710,875 ÷ 3 = 236,958.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 236,958.3333 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 | 710,875 | |
| -1 | -710,875 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
710,875 ÷ 4 = 177,718.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 177,718.75 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 | 710,875 | |
| -1 | 710,875 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 47 | 55 | 121 | 125 | 235 | 275 | 517 | 605 | 1,175 | 1,375 | 2,585 | 3,025 | 5,687 | 5,875 | 12,925 | 15,125 | 28,435 | 64,625 | 142,175 | 710,875 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -47 | -55 | -121 | -125 | -235 | -275 | -517 | -605 | -1,175 | -1,375 | -2,585 | -3,025 | -5,687 | -5,875 | -12,925 | -15,125 | -28,435 | -64,625 | -142,175 | -710,875 |
