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 5,313,605, 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 | 5,313,605 | |
| -1 | -5,313,605 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,313,605.
Example:
1 x 5,313,605 = 5,313,605
and
-1 x -5,313,605 = 5,313,605
Notice both answers equal 5,313,605
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,313,605 and divide it by 2:
5,313,605 ÷ 2 = 2,656,802.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,656,802.5 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 | 5,313,605 | |
| -1 | -5,313,605 |
Now, we try dividing 5,313,605 by 3:
5,313,605 ÷ 3 = 1,771,201.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,771,201.6667 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 | 5,313,605 | |
| -1 | -5,313,605 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,313,605 ÷ 4 = 1,328,401.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,328,401.25 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 | 5,313,605 | |
| -1 | 5,313,605 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 17 | 55 | 85 | 187 | 935 | 5,683 | 28,415 | 62,513 | 96,611 | 312,565 | 483,055 | 1,062,721 | 5,313,605 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -17 | -55 | -85 | -187 | -935 | -5,683 | -28,415 | -62,513 | -96,611 | -312,565 | -483,055 | -1,062,721 | -5,313,605 |
