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 5,567,573, 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 | 5,567,573 | |
| -1 | -5,567,573 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,567,573.
Example:
1 x 5,567,573 = 5,567,573
and
-1 x -5,567,573 = 5,567,573
Notice both answers equal 5,567,573
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,567,573 and divide it by 2:
5,567,573 ÷ 2 = 2,783,786.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,783,786.5 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 | 5,567,573 | |
| -1 | -5,567,573 |
Now, we try dividing 5,567,573 by 3:
5,567,573 ÷ 3 = 1,855,857.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,855,857.6667 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 | 5,567,573 | |
| -1 | -5,567,573 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,567,573 ÷ 4 = 1,391,893.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,391,893.25 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 | 5,567,573 | |
| -1 | 5,567,573 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 47 | 89 | 121 | 517 | 979 | 1,331 | 4,183 | 5,687 | 10,769 | 46,013 | 62,557 | 118,459 | 506,143 | 5,567,573 |
| -1 | -11 | -47 | -89 | -121 | -517 | -979 | -1,331 | -4,183 | -5,687 | -10,769 | -46,013 | -62,557 | -118,459 | -506,143 | -5,567,573 |
