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 744,107, 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 | 744,107 | |
| -1 | -744,107 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 744,107.
Example:
1 x 744,107 = 744,107
and
-1 x -744,107 = 744,107
Notice both answers equal 744,107
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 744,107 and divide it by 2:
744,107 ÷ 2 = 372,053.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 372,053.5 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 | 744,107 | |
| -1 | -744,107 |
Now, we try dividing 744,107 by 3:
744,107 ÷ 3 = 248,035.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 248,035.6667 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 | 744,107 | |
| -1 | -744,107 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
744,107 ÷ 4 = 186,026.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 186,026.75 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 | 744,107 | |
| -1 | 744,107 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 17 | 37 | 91 | 119 | 169 | 221 | 259 | 481 | 629 | 1,183 | 1,547 | 2,873 | 3,367 | 4,403 | 6,253 | 8,177 | 20,111 | 43,771 | 57,239 | 106,301 | 744,107 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -17 | -37 | -91 | -119 | -169 | -221 | -259 | -481 | -629 | -1,183 | -1,547 | -2,873 | -3,367 | -4,403 | -6,253 | -8,177 | -20,111 | -43,771 | -57,239 | -106,301 | -744,107 |
