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 889,075, 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 | 889,075 | |
| -1 | -889,075 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 889,075.
Example:
1 x 889,075 = 889,075
and
-1 x -889,075 = 889,075
Notice both answers equal 889,075
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 889,075 and divide it by 2:
889,075 ÷ 2 = 444,537.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 444,537.5 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 | 889,075 | |
| -1 | -889,075 |
Now, we try dividing 889,075 by 3:
889,075 ÷ 3 = 296,358.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 296,358.3333 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 | 889,075 | |
| -1 | -889,075 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
889,075 ÷ 4 = 222,268.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 222,268.75 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 | 889,075 | |
| -1 | 889,075 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 53 | 55 | 61 | 265 | 275 | 305 | 583 | 671 | 1,325 | 1,525 | 2,915 | 3,233 | 3,355 | 14,575 | 16,165 | 16,775 | 35,563 | 80,825 | 177,815 | 889,075 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -53 | -55 | -61 | -265 | -275 | -305 | -583 | -671 | -1,325 | -1,525 | -2,915 | -3,233 | -3,355 | -14,575 | -16,165 | -16,775 | -35,563 | -80,825 | -177,815 | -889,075 |
