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 5,210,335, 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 | 5,210,335 | |
| -1 | -5,210,335 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,210,335.
Example:
1 x 5,210,335 = 5,210,335
and
-1 x -5,210,335 = 5,210,335
Notice both answers equal 5,210,335
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,210,335 and divide it by 2:
5,210,335 ÷ 2 = 2,605,167.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,605,167.5 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 | 5,210,335 | |
| -1 | -5,210,335 |
Now, we try dividing 5,210,335 by 3:
5,210,335 ÷ 3 = 1,736,778.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,736,778.3333 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 | 5,210,335 | |
| -1 | -5,210,335 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,210,335 ÷ 4 = 1,302,583.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,302,583.75 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 | 5,210,335 | |
| -1 | 5,210,335 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 71 | 355 | 923 | 1,129 | 4,615 | 5,645 | 14,677 | 73,385 | 80,159 | 400,795 | 1,042,067 | 5,210,335 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -71 | -355 | -923 | -1,129 | -4,615 | -5,645 | -14,677 | -73,385 | -80,159 | -400,795 | -1,042,067 | -5,210,335 |
