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 5,430,737, 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 | 5,430,737 | |
| -1 | -5,430,737 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,430,737.
Example:
1 x 5,430,737 = 5,430,737
and
-1 x -5,430,737 = 5,430,737
Notice both answers equal 5,430,737
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,430,737 and divide it by 2:
5,430,737 ÷ 2 = 2,715,368.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,715,368.5 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 | 5,430,737 | |
| -1 | -5,430,737 |
Now, we try dividing 5,430,737 by 3:
5,430,737 ÷ 3 = 1,810,245.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,810,245.6667 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 | 5,430,737 | |
| -1 | -5,430,737 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,430,737 ÷ 4 = 1,357,684.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,357,684.25 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 | 5,430,737 | |
| -1 | 5,430,737 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 23 | 41 | 299 | 443 | 533 | 943 | 5,759 | 10,189 | 12,259 | 18,163 | 132,457 | 236,119 | 417,749 | 5,430,737 |
| -1 | -13 | -23 | -41 | -299 | -443 | -533 | -943 | -5,759 | -10,189 | -12,259 | -18,163 | -132,457 | -236,119 | -417,749 | -5,430,737 |
