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 5,194,615, 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 | 5,194,615 | |
| -1 | -5,194,615 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,194,615.
Example:
1 x 5,194,615 = 5,194,615
and
-1 x -5,194,615 = 5,194,615
Notice both answers equal 5,194,615
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,194,615 and divide it by 2:
5,194,615 ÷ 2 = 2,597,307.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,597,307.5 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 | 5,194,615 | |
| -1 | -5,194,615 |
Now, we try dividing 5,194,615 by 3:
5,194,615 ÷ 3 = 1,731,538.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,731,538.3333 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 | 5,194,615 | |
| -1 | -5,194,615 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,194,615 ÷ 4 = 1,298,653.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,298,653.75 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 | 5,194,615 | |
| -1 | 5,194,615 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 37 | 43 | 185 | 215 | 653 | 1,591 | 3,265 | 7,955 | 24,161 | 28,079 | 120,805 | 140,395 | 1,038,923 | 5,194,615 |
| -1 | -5 | -37 | -43 | -185 | -215 | -653 | -1,591 | -3,265 | -7,955 | -24,161 | -28,079 | -120,805 | -140,395 | -1,038,923 | -5,194,615 |
