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 836,675, 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 | 836,675 | |
| -1 | -836,675 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 836,675.
Example:
1 x 836,675 = 836,675
and
-1 x -836,675 = 836,675
Notice both answers equal 836,675
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 836,675 and divide it by 2:
836,675 ÷ 2 = 418,337.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 418,337.5 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 | 836,675 | |
| -1 | -836,675 |
Now, we try dividing 836,675 by 3:
836,675 ÷ 3 = 278,891.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 278,891.6667 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 | 836,675 | |
| -1 | -836,675 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
836,675 ÷ 4 = 209,168.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 209,168.75 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 | 836,675 | |
| -1 | 836,675 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 49 | 175 | 245 | 683 | 1,225 | 3,415 | 4,781 | 17,075 | 23,905 | 33,467 | 119,525 | 167,335 | 836,675 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -49 | -175 | -245 | -683 | -1,225 | -3,415 | -4,781 | -17,075 | -23,905 | -33,467 | -119,525 | -167,335 | -836,675 |
