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 5,110,595, 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 | 5,110,595 | |
| -1 | -5,110,595 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,110,595.
Example:
1 x 5,110,595 = 5,110,595
and
-1 x -5,110,595 = 5,110,595
Notice both answers equal 5,110,595
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,110,595 and divide it by 2:
5,110,595 ÷ 2 = 2,555,297.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,555,297.5 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 | 5,110,595 | |
| -1 | -5,110,595 |
Now, we try dividing 5,110,595 by 3:
5,110,595 ÷ 3 = 1,703,531.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,703,531.6667 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 | 5,110,595 | |
| -1 | -5,110,595 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,110,595 ÷ 4 = 1,277,648.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,277,648.75 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 | 5,110,595 | |
| -1 | 5,110,595 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 151 | 755 | 967 | 1,057 | 4,835 | 5,285 | 6,769 | 33,845 | 146,017 | 730,085 | 1,022,119 | 5,110,595 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -151 | -755 | -967 | -1,057 | -4,835 | -5,285 | -6,769 | -33,845 | -146,017 | -730,085 | -1,022,119 | -5,110,595 |
