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 5,566,925, 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 | 5,566,925 | |
| -1 | -5,566,925 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,566,925.
Example:
1 x 5,566,925 = 5,566,925
and
-1 x -5,566,925 = 5,566,925
Notice both answers equal 5,566,925
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,566,925 and divide it by 2:
5,566,925 ÷ 2 = 2,783,462.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,783,462.5 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 | 5,566,925 | |
| -1 | -5,566,925 |
Now, we try dividing 5,566,925 by 3:
5,566,925 ÷ 3 = 1,855,641.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,855,641.6667 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 | 5,566,925 | |
| -1 | -5,566,925 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,566,925 ÷ 4 = 1,391,731.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,391,731.25 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 | 5,566,925 | |
| -1 | 5,566,925 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 13 | 25 | 35 | 65 | 91 | 175 | 325 | 455 | 2,275 | 2,447 | 12,235 | 17,129 | 31,811 | 61,175 | 85,645 | 159,055 | 222,677 | 428,225 | 795,275 | 1,113,385 | 5,566,925 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -13 | -25 | -35 | -65 | -91 | -175 | -325 | -455 | -2,275 | -2,447 | -12,235 | -17,129 | -31,811 | -61,175 | -85,645 | -159,055 | -222,677 | -428,225 | -795,275 | -1,113,385 | -5,566,925 |
