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 5,463,355, 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 | 5,463,355 | |
| -1 | -5,463,355 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,463,355.
Example:
1 x 5,463,355 = 5,463,355
and
-1 x -5,463,355 = 5,463,355
Notice both answers equal 5,463,355
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,463,355 and divide it by 2:
5,463,355 ÷ 2 = 2,731,677.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,731,677.5 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 | 5,463,355 | |
| -1 | -5,463,355 |
Now, we try dividing 5,463,355 by 3:
5,463,355 ÷ 3 = 1,821,118.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,821,118.3333 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 | 5,463,355 | |
| -1 | -5,463,355 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,463,355 ÷ 4 = 1,365,838.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,365,838.75 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 | 5,463,355 | |
| -1 | 5,463,355 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 95 | 131 | 439 | 655 | 2,195 | 2,489 | 8,341 | 12,445 | 41,705 | 57,509 | 287,545 | 1,092,671 | 5,463,355 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -95 | -131 | -439 | -655 | -2,195 | -2,489 | -8,341 | -12,445 | -41,705 | -57,509 | -287,545 | -1,092,671 | -5,463,355 |
