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 5,062,057, 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 | 5,062,057 | |
| -1 | -5,062,057 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,062,057.
Example:
1 x 5,062,057 = 5,062,057
and
-1 x -5,062,057 = 5,062,057
Notice both answers equal 5,062,057
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,062,057 and divide it by 2:
5,062,057 ÷ 2 = 2,531,028.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,531,028.5 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 | 5,062,057 | |
| -1 | -5,062,057 |
Now, we try dividing 5,062,057 by 3:
5,062,057 ÷ 3 = 1,687,352.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,687,352.3333 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 | 5,062,057 | |
| -1 | -5,062,057 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,062,057 ÷ 4 = 1,265,514.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,265,514.25 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 | 5,062,057 | |
| -1 | 5,062,057 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 13 | 77 | 91 | 143 | 169 | 389 | 1,001 | 1,183 | 1,859 | 2,723 | 4,279 | 5,057 | 13,013 | 29,953 | 35,399 | 55,627 | 65,741 | 389,389 | 460,187 | 723,151 | 5,062,057 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -13 | -77 | -91 | -143 | -169 | -389 | -1,001 | -1,183 | -1,859 | -2,723 | -4,279 | -5,057 | -13,013 | -29,953 | -35,399 | -55,627 | -65,741 | -389,389 | -460,187 | -723,151 | -5,062,057 |
