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 5,747,677, 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 | 5,747,677 | |
| -1 | -5,747,677 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,747,677.
Example:
1 x 5,747,677 = 5,747,677
and
-1 x -5,747,677 = 5,747,677
Notice both answers equal 5,747,677
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,747,677 and divide it by 2:
5,747,677 ÷ 2 = 2,873,838.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,873,838.5 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 | 5,747,677 | |
| -1 | -5,747,677 |
Now, we try dividing 5,747,677 by 3:
5,747,677 ÷ 3 = 1,915,892.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,915,892.3333 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 | 5,747,677 | |
| -1 | -5,747,677 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,747,677 ÷ 4 = 1,436,919.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,436,919.25 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 | 5,747,677 | |
| -1 | 5,747,677 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 23 | 47 | 299 | 409 | 611 | 1,081 | 5,317 | 9,407 | 14,053 | 19,223 | 122,291 | 249,899 | 442,129 | 5,747,677 |
| -1 | -13 | -23 | -47 | -299 | -409 | -611 | -1,081 | -5,317 | -9,407 | -14,053 | -19,223 | -122,291 | -249,899 | -442,129 | -5,747,677 |
