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 5,177,425, 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 | 5,177,425 | |
| -1 | -5,177,425 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,177,425.
Example:
1 x 5,177,425 = 5,177,425
and
-1 x -5,177,425 = 5,177,425
Notice both answers equal 5,177,425
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,177,425 and divide it by 2:
5,177,425 ÷ 2 = 2,588,712.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,588,712.5 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 | 5,177,425 | |
| -1 | -5,177,425 |
Now, we try dividing 5,177,425 by 3:
5,177,425 ÷ 3 = 1,725,808.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,725,808.3333 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 | 5,177,425 | |
| -1 | -5,177,425 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,177,425 ÷ 4 = 1,294,356.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,294,356.25 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 | 5,177,425 | |
| -1 | 5,177,425 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 55 | 67 | 275 | 281 | 335 | 737 | 1,405 | 1,675 | 3,091 | 3,685 | 7,025 | 15,455 | 18,425 | 18,827 | 77,275 | 94,135 | 207,097 | 470,675 | 1,035,485 | 5,177,425 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -55 | -67 | -275 | -281 | -335 | -737 | -1,405 | -1,675 | -3,091 | -3,685 | -7,025 | -15,455 | -18,425 | -18,827 | -77,275 | -94,135 | -207,097 | -470,675 | -1,035,485 | -5,177,425 |
