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 5,029,219, 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 | 5,029,219 | |
| -1 | -5,029,219 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,029,219.
Example:
1 x 5,029,219 = 5,029,219
and
-1 x -5,029,219 = 5,029,219
Notice both answers equal 5,029,219
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,029,219 and divide it by 2:
5,029,219 ÷ 2 = 2,514,609.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,514,609.5 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 | 5,029,219 | |
| -1 | -5,029,219 |
Now, we try dividing 5,029,219 by 3:
5,029,219 ÷ 3 = 1,676,406.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,676,406.3333 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 | 5,029,219 | |
| -1 | -5,029,219 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,029,219 ÷ 4 = 1,257,304.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,257,304.75 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 | 5,029,219 | |
| -1 | 5,029,219 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 59 | 79 | 83 | 767 | 1,027 | 1,079 | 4,661 | 4,897 | 6,557 | 60,593 | 63,661 | 85,241 | 386,863 | 5,029,219 |
| -1 | -13 | -59 | -79 | -83 | -767 | -1,027 | -1,079 | -4,661 | -4,897 | -6,557 | -60,593 | -63,661 | -85,241 | -386,863 | -5,029,219 |
