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 5,345,315, 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 | 5,345,315 | |
| -1 | -5,345,315 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,345,315.
Example:
1 x 5,345,315 = 5,345,315
and
-1 x -5,345,315 = 5,345,315
Notice both answers equal 5,345,315
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,345,315 and divide it by 2:
5,345,315 ÷ 2 = 2,672,657.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,672,657.5 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 | 5,345,315 | |
| -1 | -5,345,315 |
Now, we try dividing 5,345,315 by 3:
5,345,315 ÷ 3 = 1,781,771.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,781,771.6667 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 | 5,345,315 | |
| -1 | -5,345,315 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,345,315 ÷ 4 = 1,336,328.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,336,328.75 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 | 5,345,315 | |
| -1 | 5,345,315 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 53 | 115 | 265 | 877 | 1,219 | 4,385 | 6,095 | 20,171 | 46,481 | 100,855 | 232,405 | 1,069,063 | 5,345,315 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -53 | -115 | -265 | -877 | -1,219 | -4,385 | -6,095 | -20,171 | -46,481 | -100,855 | -232,405 | -1,069,063 | -5,345,315 |
