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 710,885, 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 | 710,885 | |
| -1 | -710,885 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 710,885.
Example:
1 x 710,885 = 710,885
and
-1 x -710,885 = 710,885
Notice both answers equal 710,885
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 710,885 and divide it by 2:
710,885 ÷ 2 = 355,442.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 355,442.5 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 | 710,885 | |
| -1 | -710,885 |
Now, we try dividing 710,885 by 3:
710,885 ÷ 3 = 236,961.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 236,961.6667 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 | 710,885 | |
| -1 | -710,885 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
710,885 ÷ 4 = 177,721.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 177,721.25 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 | 710,885 | |
| -1 | 710,885 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 19 | 35 | 95 | 133 | 665 | 1,069 | 5,345 | 7,483 | 20,311 | 37,415 | 101,555 | 142,177 | 710,885 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -19 | -35 | -95 | -133 | -665 | -1,069 | -5,345 | -7,483 | -20,311 | -37,415 | -101,555 | -142,177 | -710,885 |
