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 5,401,325, 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 | 5,401,325 | |
| -1 | -5,401,325 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,401,325.
Example:
1 x 5,401,325 = 5,401,325
and
-1 x -5,401,325 = 5,401,325
Notice both answers equal 5,401,325
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,401,325 and divide it by 2:
5,401,325 ÷ 2 = 2,700,662.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,700,662.5 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 | 5,401,325 | |
| -1 | -5,401,325 |
Now, we try dividing 5,401,325 by 3:
5,401,325 ÷ 3 = 1,800,441.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,800,441.6667 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 | 5,401,325 | |
| -1 | -5,401,325 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,401,325 ÷ 4 = 1,350,331.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,350,331.25 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 | 5,401,325 | |
| -1 | 5,401,325 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 25 | 71 | 85 | 179 | 355 | 425 | 895 | 1,207 | 1,775 | 3,043 | 4,475 | 6,035 | 12,709 | 15,215 | 30,175 | 63,545 | 76,075 | 216,053 | 317,725 | 1,080,265 | 5,401,325 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -25 | -71 | -85 | -179 | -355 | -425 | -895 | -1,207 | -1,775 | -3,043 | -4,475 | -6,035 | -12,709 | -15,215 | -30,175 | -63,545 | -76,075 | -216,053 | -317,725 | -1,080,265 | -5,401,325 |
