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 5,687,555, 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 | 5,687,555 | |
| -1 | -5,687,555 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,687,555.
Example:
1 x 5,687,555 = 5,687,555
and
-1 x -5,687,555 = 5,687,555
Notice both answers equal 5,687,555
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,687,555 and divide it by 2:
5,687,555 ÷ 2 = 2,843,777.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,843,777.5 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 | 5,687,555 | |
| -1 | -5,687,555 |
Now, we try dividing 5,687,555 by 3:
5,687,555 ÷ 3 = 1,895,851.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,895,851.6667 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 | 5,687,555 | |
| -1 | -5,687,555 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,687,555 ÷ 4 = 1,421,888.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,421,888.75 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 | 5,687,555 | |
| -1 | 5,687,555 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 23 | 95 | 115 | 137 | 361 | 437 | 685 | 1,805 | 2,185 | 2,603 | 3,151 | 8,303 | 13,015 | 15,755 | 41,515 | 49,457 | 59,869 | 247,285 | 299,345 | 1,137,511 | 5,687,555 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -23 | -95 | -115 | -137 | -361 | -437 | -685 | -1,805 | -2,185 | -2,603 | -3,151 | -8,303 | -13,015 | -15,755 | -41,515 | -49,457 | -59,869 | -247,285 | -299,345 | -1,137,511 | -5,687,555 |
