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 3,344,165, 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 | 3,344,165 | |
| -1 | -3,344,165 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 3,344,165.
Example:
1 x 3,344,165 = 3,344,165
and
-1 x -3,344,165 = 3,344,165
Notice both answers equal 3,344,165
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 3,344,165 and divide it by 2:
3,344,165 ÷ 2 = 1,672,082.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,672,082.5 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 | 3,344,165 | |
| -1 | -3,344,165 |
Now, we try dividing 3,344,165 by 3:
3,344,165 ÷ 3 = 1,114,721.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,114,721.6667 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 | 3,344,165 | |
| -1 | -3,344,165 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
3,344,165 ÷ 4 = 836,041.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 836,041.25 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 | 3,344,165 | |
| -1 | 3,344,165 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 41 | 55 | 205 | 451 | 1,483 | 2,255 | 7,415 | 16,313 | 60,803 | 81,565 | 304,015 | 668,833 | 3,344,165 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -41 | -55 | -205 | -451 | -1,483 | -2,255 | -7,415 | -16,313 | -60,803 | -81,565 | -304,015 | -668,833 | -3,344,165 |
