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 5,631,301, 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 | 5,631,301 | |
| -1 | -5,631,301 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,631,301.
Example:
1 x 5,631,301 = 5,631,301
and
-1 x -5,631,301 = 5,631,301
Notice both answers equal 5,631,301
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,631,301 and divide it by 2:
5,631,301 ÷ 2 = 2,815,650.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,815,650.5 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 | 5,631,301 | |
| -1 | -5,631,301 |
Now, we try dividing 5,631,301 by 3:
5,631,301 ÷ 3 = 1,877,100.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,877,100.3333 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 | 5,631,301 | |
| -1 | -5,631,301 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,631,301 ÷ 4 = 1,407,825.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,407,825.25 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 | 5,631,301 | |
| -1 | 5,631,301 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 17 | 83 | 221 | 307 | 1,079 | 1,411 | 3,991 | 5,219 | 18,343 | 25,481 | 67,847 | 331,253 | 433,177 | 5,631,301 |
| -1 | -13 | -17 | -83 | -221 | -307 | -1,079 | -1,411 | -3,991 | -5,219 | -18,343 | -25,481 | -67,847 | -331,253 | -433,177 | -5,631,301 |
