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 5,003,465, 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 | 5,003,465 | |
| -1 | -5,003,465 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,003,465.
Example:
1 x 5,003,465 = 5,003,465
and
-1 x -5,003,465 = 5,003,465
Notice both answers equal 5,003,465
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,003,465 and divide it by 2:
5,003,465 ÷ 2 = 2,501,732.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,501,732.5 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 | 5,003,465 | |
| -1 | -5,003,465 |
Now, we try dividing 5,003,465 by 3:
5,003,465 ÷ 3 = 1,667,821.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,667,821.6667 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 | 5,003,465 | |
| -1 | -5,003,465 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,003,465 ÷ 4 = 1,250,866.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,250,866.25 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 | 5,003,465 | |
| -1 | 5,003,465 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 53 | 79 | 239 | 265 | 395 | 1,195 | 4,187 | 12,667 | 18,881 | 20,935 | 63,335 | 94,405 | 1,000,693 | 5,003,465 |
| -1 | -5 | -53 | -79 | -239 | -265 | -395 | -1,195 | -4,187 | -12,667 | -18,881 | -20,935 | -63,335 | -94,405 | -1,000,693 | -5,003,465 |
