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 5,323,955, 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 | 5,323,955 | |
| -1 | -5,323,955 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,323,955.
Example:
1 x 5,323,955 = 5,323,955
and
-1 x -5,323,955 = 5,323,955
Notice both answers equal 5,323,955
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,323,955 and divide it by 2:
5,323,955 ÷ 2 = 2,661,977.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,661,977.5 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 | 5,323,955 | |
| -1 | -5,323,955 |
Now, we try dividing 5,323,955 by 3:
5,323,955 ÷ 3 = 1,774,651.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,774,651.6667 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 | 5,323,955 | |
| -1 | -5,323,955 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,323,955 ÷ 4 = 1,330,988.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,330,988.75 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 | 5,323,955 | |
| -1 | 5,323,955 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 13 | 35 | 65 | 91 | 455 | 11,701 | 58,505 | 81,907 | 152,113 | 409,535 | 760,565 | 1,064,791 | 5,323,955 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -13 | -35 | -65 | -91 | -455 | -11,701 | -58,505 | -81,907 | -152,113 | -409,535 | -760,565 | -1,064,791 | -5,323,955 |
