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 1,283,545, 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 | 1,283,545 | |
| -1 | -1,283,545 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,283,545.
Example:
1 x 1,283,545 = 1,283,545
and
-1 x -1,283,545 = 1,283,545
Notice both answers equal 1,283,545
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,283,545 and divide it by 2:
1,283,545 ÷ 2 = 641,772.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 641,772.5 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 | 1,283,545 | |
| -1 | -1,283,545 |
Now, we try dividing 1,283,545 by 3:
1,283,545 ÷ 3 = 427,848.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 427,848.3333 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 | 1,283,545 | |
| -1 | -1,283,545 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,283,545 ÷ 4 = 320,886.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 320,886.25 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 | 1,283,545 | |
| -1 | 1,283,545 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 59 | 95 | 229 | 295 | 1,121 | 1,145 | 4,351 | 5,605 | 13,511 | 21,755 | 67,555 | 256,709 | 1,283,545 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -59 | -95 | -229 | -295 | -1,121 | -1,145 | -4,351 | -5,605 | -13,511 | -21,755 | -67,555 | -256,709 | -1,283,545 |
