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 5,001,655, 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 | 5,001,655 | |
| -1 | -5,001,655 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,001,655.
Example:
1 x 5,001,655 = 5,001,655
and
-1 x -5,001,655 = 5,001,655
Notice both answers equal 5,001,655
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,001,655 and divide it by 2:
5,001,655 ÷ 2 = 2,500,827.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,500,827.5 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 | 5,001,655 | |
| -1 | -5,001,655 |
Now, we try dividing 5,001,655 by 3:
5,001,655 ÷ 3 = 1,667,218.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,667,218.3333 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 | 5,001,655 | |
| -1 | -5,001,655 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,001,655 ÷ 4 = 1,250,413.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,250,413.75 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 | 5,001,655 | |
| -1 | 5,001,655 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 19 | 85 | 95 | 163 | 323 | 361 | 815 | 1,615 | 1,805 | 2,771 | 3,097 | 6,137 | 13,855 | 15,485 | 30,685 | 52,649 | 58,843 | 263,245 | 294,215 | 1,000,331 | 5,001,655 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -19 | -85 | -95 | -163 | -323 | -361 | -815 | -1,615 | -1,805 | -2,771 | -3,097 | -6,137 | -13,855 | -15,485 | -30,685 | -52,649 | -58,843 | -263,245 | -294,215 | -1,000,331 | -5,001,655 |
