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 5,333,875, 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 | 5,333,875 | |
| -1 | -5,333,875 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,333,875.
Example:
1 x 5,333,875 = 5,333,875
and
-1 x -5,333,875 = 5,333,875
Notice both answers equal 5,333,875
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,333,875 and divide it by 2:
5,333,875 ÷ 2 = 2,666,937.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,666,937.5 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 | 5,333,875 | |
| -1 | -5,333,875 |
Now, we try dividing 5,333,875 by 3:
5,333,875 ÷ 3 = 1,777,958.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,777,958.3333 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 | 5,333,875 | |
| -1 | -5,333,875 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,333,875 ÷ 4 = 1,333,468.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,333,468.75 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 | 5,333,875 | |
| -1 | 5,333,875 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 71 | 125 | 355 | 601 | 1,775 | 3,005 | 8,875 | 15,025 | 42,671 | 75,125 | 213,355 | 1,066,775 | 5,333,875 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -71 | -125 | -355 | -601 | -1,775 | -3,005 | -8,875 | -15,025 | -42,671 | -75,125 | -213,355 | -1,066,775 | -5,333,875 |
