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 5,774,923, 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 | 5,774,923 | |
| -1 | -5,774,923 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,774,923.
Example:
1 x 5,774,923 = 5,774,923
and
-1 x -5,774,923 = 5,774,923
Notice both answers equal 5,774,923
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,774,923 and divide it by 2:
5,774,923 ÷ 2 = 2,887,461.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,887,461.5 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 | 5,774,923 | |
| -1 | -5,774,923 |
Now, we try dividing 5,774,923 by 3:
5,774,923 ÷ 3 = 1,924,974.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,924,974.3333 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 | 5,774,923 | |
| -1 | -5,774,923 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,774,923 ÷ 4 = 1,443,730.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,443,730.75 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 | 5,774,923 | |
| -1 | 5,774,923 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 37 | 77 | 259 | 407 | 2,027 | 2,849 | 14,189 | 22,297 | 74,999 | 156,079 | 524,993 | 824,989 | 5,774,923 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -37 | -77 | -259 | -407 | -2,027 | -2,849 | -14,189 | -22,297 | -74,999 | -156,079 | -524,993 | -824,989 | -5,774,923 |
