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 5,084,651, 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 | 5,084,651 | |
| -1 | -5,084,651 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,084,651.
Example:
1 x 5,084,651 = 5,084,651
and
-1 x -5,084,651 = 5,084,651
Notice both answers equal 5,084,651
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,084,651 and divide it by 2:
5,084,651 ÷ 2 = 2,542,325.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,542,325.5 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 | 5,084,651 | |
| -1 | -5,084,651 |
Now, we try dividing 5,084,651 by 3:
5,084,651 ÷ 3 = 1,694,883.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,694,883.6667 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 | 5,084,651 | |
| -1 | -5,084,651 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,084,651 ÷ 4 = 1,271,162.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,271,162.75 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 | 5,084,651 | |
| -1 | 5,084,651 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 31 | 37 | 143 | 341 | 403 | 407 | 481 | 961 | 1,147 | 4,433 | 5,291 | 10,571 | 12,493 | 12,617 | 14,911 | 35,557 | 137,423 | 164,021 | 391,127 | 462,241 | 5,084,651 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -31 | -37 | -143 | -341 | -403 | -407 | -481 | -961 | -1,147 | -4,433 | -5,291 | -10,571 | -12,493 | -12,617 | -14,911 | -35,557 | -137,423 | -164,021 | -391,127 | -462,241 | -5,084,651 |
