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 888,811, 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 | 888,811 | |
| -1 | -888,811 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 888,811.
Example:
1 x 888,811 = 888,811
and
-1 x -888,811 = 888,811
Notice both answers equal 888,811
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 888,811 and divide it by 2:
888,811 ÷ 2 = 444,405.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 444,405.5 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 | 888,811 | |
| -1 | -888,811 |
Now, we try dividing 888,811 by 3:
888,811 ÷ 3 = 296,270.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 296,270.3333 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 | 888,811 | |
| -1 | -888,811 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
888,811 ÷ 4 = 222,202.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 222,202.75 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 | 888,811 | |
| -1 | 888,811 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 17 | 49 | 77 | 97 | 119 | 187 | 539 | 679 | 833 | 1,067 | 1,309 | 1,649 | 4,753 | 7,469 | 9,163 | 11,543 | 18,139 | 52,283 | 80,801 | 126,973 | 888,811 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -17 | -49 | -77 | -97 | -119 | -187 | -539 | -679 | -833 | -1,067 | -1,309 | -1,649 | -4,753 | -7,469 | -9,163 | -11,543 | -18,139 | -52,283 | -80,801 | -126,973 | -888,811 |
