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 716,135, 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 | 716,135 | |
| -1 | -716,135 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 716,135.
Example:
1 x 716,135 = 716,135
and
-1 x -716,135 = 716,135
Notice both answers equal 716,135
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 716,135 and divide it by 2:
716,135 ÷ 2 = 358,067.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 358,067.5 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 | 716,135 | |
| -1 | -716,135 |
Now, we try dividing 716,135 by 3:
716,135 ÷ 3 = 238,711.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 238,711.6667 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 | 716,135 | |
| -1 | -716,135 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
716,135 ÷ 4 = 179,033.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 179,033.75 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 | 716,135 | |
| -1 | 716,135 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 37 | 49 | 79 | 185 | 245 | 259 | 395 | 553 | 1,295 | 1,813 | 2,765 | 2,923 | 3,871 | 9,065 | 14,615 | 19,355 | 20,461 | 102,305 | 143,227 | 716,135 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -37 | -49 | -79 | -185 | -245 | -259 | -395 | -553 | -1,295 | -1,813 | -2,765 | -2,923 | -3,871 | -9,065 | -14,615 | -19,355 | -20,461 | -102,305 | -143,227 | -716,135 |
