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 5,710,265, 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 | 5,710,265 | |
| -1 | -5,710,265 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,710,265.
Example:
1 x 5,710,265 = 5,710,265
and
-1 x -5,710,265 = 5,710,265
Notice both answers equal 5,710,265
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,710,265 and divide it by 2:
5,710,265 ÷ 2 = 2,855,132.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,855,132.5 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 | 5,710,265 | |
| -1 | -5,710,265 |
Now, we try dividing 5,710,265 by 3:
5,710,265 ÷ 3 = 1,903,421.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,903,421.6667 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 | 5,710,265 | |
| -1 | -5,710,265 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,710,265 ÷ 4 = 1,427,566.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,427,566.25 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 | 5,710,265 | |
| -1 | 5,710,265 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 47 | 55 | 235 | 517 | 2,209 | 2,585 | 11,045 | 24,299 | 103,823 | 121,495 | 519,115 | 1,142,053 | 5,710,265 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -47 | -55 | -235 | -517 | -2,209 | -2,585 | -11,045 | -24,299 | -103,823 | -121,495 | -519,115 | -1,142,053 | -5,710,265 |
