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 5,804,671, 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 | 5,804,671 | |
| -1 | -5,804,671 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,804,671.
Example:
1 x 5,804,671 = 5,804,671
and
-1 x -5,804,671 = 5,804,671
Notice both answers equal 5,804,671
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,804,671 and divide it by 2:
5,804,671 ÷ 2 = 2,902,335.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,902,335.5 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 | 5,804,671 | |
| -1 | -5,804,671 |
Now, we try dividing 5,804,671 by 3:
5,804,671 ÷ 3 = 1,934,890.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,934,890.3333 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 | 5,804,671 | |
| -1 | -5,804,671 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,804,671 ÷ 4 = 1,451,167.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,451,167.75 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 | 5,804,671 | |
| -1 | 5,804,671 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 23 | 37 | 359 | 437 | 703 | 851 | 6,821 | 8,257 | 13,283 | 16,169 | 156,883 | 252,377 | 305,509 | 5,804,671 |
| -1 | -19 | -23 | -37 | -359 | -437 | -703 | -851 | -6,821 | -8,257 | -13,283 | -16,169 | -156,883 | -252,377 | -305,509 | -5,804,671 |
