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 969,215, 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 | 969,215 | |
| -1 | -969,215 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 969,215.
Example:
1 x 969,215 = 969,215
and
-1 x -969,215 = 969,215
Notice both answers equal 969,215
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 969,215 and divide it by 2:
969,215 ÷ 2 = 484,607.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 484,607.5 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 | 969,215 | |
| -1 | -969,215 |
Now, we try dividing 969,215 by 3:
969,215 ÷ 3 = 323,071.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 323,071.6667 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 | 969,215 | |
| -1 | -969,215 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
969,215 ÷ 4 = 242,303.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 242,303.75 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 | 969,215 | |
| -1 | 969,215 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 31 | 37 | 65 | 155 | 169 | 185 | 403 | 481 | 845 | 1,147 | 2,015 | 2,405 | 5,239 | 5,735 | 6,253 | 14,911 | 26,195 | 31,265 | 74,555 | 193,843 | 969,215 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -31 | -37 | -65 | -155 | -169 | -185 | -403 | -481 | -845 | -1,147 | -2,015 | -2,405 | -5,239 | -5,735 | -6,253 | -14,911 | -26,195 | -31,265 | -74,555 | -193,843 | -969,215 |
