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 5,608,447, 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 | 5,608,447 | |
| -1 | -5,608,447 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,608,447.
Example:
1 x 5,608,447 = 5,608,447
and
-1 x -5,608,447 = 5,608,447
Notice both answers equal 5,608,447
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,608,447 and divide it by 2:
5,608,447 ÷ 2 = 2,804,223.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,804,223.5 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 | 5,608,447 | |
| -1 | -5,608,447 |
Now, we try dividing 5,608,447 by 3:
5,608,447 ÷ 3 = 1,869,482.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,869,482.3333 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 | 5,608,447 | |
| -1 | -5,608,447 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,608,447 ÷ 4 = 1,402,111.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,402,111.75 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 | 5,608,447 | |
| -1 | 5,608,447 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 43 | 79 | 127 | 559 | 1,027 | 1,651 | 3,397 | 5,461 | 10,033 | 44,161 | 70,993 | 130,429 | 431,419 | 5,608,447 |
| -1 | -13 | -43 | -79 | -127 | -559 | -1,027 | -1,651 | -3,397 | -5,461 | -10,033 | -44,161 | -70,993 | -130,429 | -431,419 | -5,608,447 |
