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 946,075, 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 | 946,075 | |
| -1 | -946,075 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 946,075.
Example:
1 x 946,075 = 946,075
and
-1 x -946,075 = 946,075
Notice both answers equal 946,075
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 946,075 and divide it by 2:
946,075 ÷ 2 = 473,037.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 473,037.5 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 | 946,075 | |
| -1 | -946,075 |
Now, we try dividing 946,075 by 3:
946,075 ÷ 3 = 315,358.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 315,358.3333 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 | 946,075 | |
| -1 | -946,075 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
946,075 ÷ 4 = 236,518.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 236,518.75 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 | 946,075 | |
| -1 | 946,075 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 25 | 41 | 65 | 71 | 205 | 325 | 355 | 533 | 923 | 1,025 | 1,775 | 2,665 | 2,911 | 4,615 | 13,325 | 14,555 | 23,075 | 37,843 | 72,775 | 189,215 | 946,075 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -25 | -41 | -65 | -71 | -205 | -325 | -355 | -533 | -923 | -1,025 | -1,775 | -2,665 | -2,911 | -4,615 | -13,325 | -14,555 | -23,075 | -37,843 | -72,775 | -189,215 | -946,075 |
