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 5,469,079, 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 | 5,469,079 | |
| -1 | -5,469,079 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,469,079.
Example:
1 x 5,469,079 = 5,469,079
and
-1 x -5,469,079 = 5,469,079
Notice both answers equal 5,469,079
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,469,079 and divide it by 2:
5,469,079 ÷ 2 = 2,734,539.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,734,539.5 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 | 5,469,079 | |
| -1 | -5,469,079 |
Now, we try dividing 5,469,079 by 3:
5,469,079 ÷ 3 = 1,823,026.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,823,026.3333 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 | 5,469,079 | |
| -1 | -5,469,079 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,469,079 ÷ 4 = 1,367,269.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,367,269.75 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 | 5,469,079 | |
| -1 | 5,469,079 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 77 | 121 | 587 | 847 | 1,331 | 4,109 | 6,457 | 9,317 | 45,199 | 71,027 | 497,189 | 781,297 | 5,469,079 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -77 | -121 | -587 | -847 | -1,331 | -4,109 | -6,457 | -9,317 | -45,199 | -71,027 | -497,189 | -781,297 | -5,469,079 |
