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 962,455, 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 | 962,455 | |
| -1 | -962,455 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 962,455.
Example:
1 x 962,455 = 962,455
and
-1 x -962,455 = 962,455
Notice both answers equal 962,455
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 962,455 and divide it by 2:
962,455 ÷ 2 = 481,227.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 481,227.5 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 | 962,455 | |
| -1 | -962,455 |
Now, we try dividing 962,455 by 3:
962,455 ÷ 3 = 320,818.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 320,818.3333 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 | 962,455 | |
| -1 | -962,455 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
962,455 ÷ 4 = 240,613.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 240,613.75 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 | 962,455 | |
| -1 | 962,455 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 17 | 65 | 67 | 85 | 169 | 221 | 335 | 845 | 871 | 1,105 | 1,139 | 2,873 | 4,355 | 5,695 | 11,323 | 14,365 | 14,807 | 56,615 | 74,035 | 192,491 | 962,455 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -17 | -65 | -67 | -85 | -169 | -221 | -335 | -845 | -871 | -1,105 | -1,139 | -2,873 | -4,355 | -5,695 | -11,323 | -14,365 | -14,807 | -56,615 | -74,035 | -192,491 | -962,455 |
