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 5,247,011, 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 | 5,247,011 | |
| -1 | -5,247,011 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,247,011.
Example:
1 x 5,247,011 = 5,247,011
and
-1 x -5,247,011 = 5,247,011
Notice both answers equal 5,247,011
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,247,011 and divide it by 2:
5,247,011 ÷ 2 = 2,623,505.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,623,505.5 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 | 5,247,011 | |
| -1 | -5,247,011 |
Now, we try dividing 5,247,011 by 3:
5,247,011 ÷ 3 = 1,749,003.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,749,003.6667 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 | 5,247,011 | |
| -1 | -5,247,011 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,247,011 ÷ 4 = 1,311,752.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,311,752.75 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 | 5,247,011 | |
| -1 | 5,247,011 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 77 | 83 | 581 | 821 | 913 | 5,747 | 6,391 | 9,031 | 63,217 | 68,143 | 477,001 | 749,573 | 5,247,011 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -77 | -83 | -581 | -821 | -913 | -5,747 | -6,391 | -9,031 | -63,217 | -68,143 | -477,001 | -749,573 | -5,247,011 |
