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 5,651,045, 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 | 5,651,045 | |
| -1 | -5,651,045 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,651,045.
Example:
1 x 5,651,045 = 5,651,045
and
-1 x -5,651,045 = 5,651,045
Notice both answers equal 5,651,045
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,651,045 and divide it by 2:
5,651,045 ÷ 2 = 2,825,522.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,825,522.5 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 | 5,651,045 | |
| -1 | -5,651,045 |
Now, we try dividing 5,651,045 by 3:
5,651,045 ÷ 3 = 1,883,681.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,883,681.6667 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 | 5,651,045 | |
| -1 | -5,651,045 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,651,045 ÷ 4 = 1,412,761.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,412,761.25 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 | 5,651,045 | |
| -1 | 5,651,045 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 47 | 139 | 173 | 235 | 695 | 865 | 6,533 | 8,131 | 24,047 | 32,665 | 40,655 | 120,235 | 1,130,209 | 5,651,045 |
| -1 | -5 | -47 | -139 | -173 | -235 | -695 | -865 | -6,533 | -8,131 | -24,047 | -32,665 | -40,655 | -120,235 | -1,130,209 | -5,651,045 |
