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 5,434,247, 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 | 5,434,247 | |
| -1 | -5,434,247 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,434,247.
Example:
1 x 5,434,247 = 5,434,247
and
-1 x -5,434,247 = 5,434,247
Notice both answers equal 5,434,247
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,434,247 and divide it by 2:
5,434,247 ÷ 2 = 2,717,123.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,717,123.5 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 | 5,434,247 | |
| -1 | -5,434,247 |
Now, we try dividing 5,434,247 by 3:
5,434,247 ÷ 3 = 1,811,415.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,811,415.6667 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 | 5,434,247 | |
| -1 | -5,434,247 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,434,247 ÷ 4 = 1,358,561.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,358,561.75 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 | 5,434,247 | |
| -1 | 5,434,247 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 19 | 49 | 91 | 133 | 247 | 449 | 637 | 931 | 1,729 | 3,143 | 5,837 | 8,531 | 12,103 | 22,001 | 40,859 | 59,717 | 110,903 | 286,013 | 418,019 | 776,321 | 5,434,247 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -19 | -49 | -91 | -133 | -247 | -449 | -637 | -931 | -1,729 | -3,143 | -5,837 | -8,531 | -12,103 | -22,001 | -40,859 | -59,717 | -110,903 | -286,013 | -418,019 | -776,321 | -5,434,247 |
