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 5,626,717, 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 | 5,626,717 | |
| -1 | -5,626,717 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,626,717.
Example:
1 x 5,626,717 = 5,626,717
and
-1 x -5,626,717 = 5,626,717
Notice both answers equal 5,626,717
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,626,717 and divide it by 2:
5,626,717 ÷ 2 = 2,813,358.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,813,358.5 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 | 5,626,717 | |
| -1 | -5,626,717 |
Now, we try dividing 5,626,717 by 3:
5,626,717 ÷ 3 = 1,875,572.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,875,572.3333 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 | 5,626,717 | |
| -1 | -5,626,717 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,626,717 ÷ 4 = 1,406,679.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,406,679.25 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 | 5,626,717 | |
| -1 | 5,626,717 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 31 | 41 | 233 | 589 | 779 | 1,271 | 4,427 | 7,223 | 9,553 | 24,149 | 137,237 | 181,507 | 296,143 | 5,626,717 |
| -1 | -19 | -31 | -41 | -233 | -589 | -779 | -1,271 | -4,427 | -7,223 | -9,553 | -24,149 | -137,237 | -181,507 | -296,143 | -5,626,717 |
