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 196,075, 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 | 196,075 | |
| -1 | -196,075 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 196,075.
Example:
1 x 196,075 = 196,075
and
-1 x -196,075 = 196,075
Notice both answers equal 196,075
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 196,075 and divide it by 2:
196,075 ÷ 2 = 98,037.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 98,037.5 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 | 196,075 | |
| -1 | -196,075 |
Now, we try dividing 196,075 by 3:
196,075 ÷ 3 = 65,358.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 65,358.3333 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 | 196,075 | |
| -1 | -196,075 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
196,075 ÷ 4 = 49,018.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 49,018.75 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 | 196,075 | |
| -1 | 196,075 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 23 | 25 | 31 | 55 | 115 | 155 | 253 | 275 | 341 | 575 | 713 | 775 | 1,265 | 1,705 | 3,565 | 6,325 | 7,843 | 8,525 | 17,825 | 39,215 | 196,075 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -23 | -25 | -31 | -55 | -115 | -155 | -253 | -275 | -341 | -575 | -713 | -775 | -1,265 | -1,705 | -3,565 | -6,325 | -7,843 | -8,525 | -17,825 | -39,215 | -196,075 |
