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 5,464,277, 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 | 5,464,277 | |
| -1 | -5,464,277 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,464,277.
Example:
1 x 5,464,277 = 5,464,277
and
-1 x -5,464,277 = 5,464,277
Notice both answers equal 5,464,277
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,464,277 and divide it by 2:
5,464,277 ÷ 2 = 2,732,138.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,732,138.5 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 | 5,464,277 | |
| -1 | -5,464,277 |
Now, we try dividing 5,464,277 by 3:
5,464,277 ÷ 3 = 1,821,425.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,821,425.6667 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 | 5,464,277 | |
| -1 | -5,464,277 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,464,277 ÷ 4 = 1,366,069.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,366,069.25 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 | 5,464,277 | |
| -1 | 5,464,277 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 31 | 91 | 149 | 169 | 217 | 403 | 1,043 | 1,183 | 1,937 | 2,821 | 4,619 | 5,239 | 13,559 | 25,181 | 32,333 | 36,673 | 60,047 | 176,267 | 420,329 | 780,611 | 5,464,277 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -31 | -91 | -149 | -169 | -217 | -403 | -1,043 | -1,183 | -1,937 | -2,821 | -4,619 | -5,239 | -13,559 | -25,181 | -32,333 | -36,673 | -60,047 | -176,267 | -420,329 | -780,611 | -5,464,277 |
