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 5,810,515, 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 | 5,810,515 | |
| -1 | -5,810,515 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,810,515.
Example:
1 x 5,810,515 = 5,810,515
and
-1 x -5,810,515 = 5,810,515
Notice both answers equal 5,810,515
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,810,515 and divide it by 2:
5,810,515 ÷ 2 = 2,905,257.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,905,257.5 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 | 5,810,515 | |
| -1 | -5,810,515 |
Now, we try dividing 5,810,515 by 3:
5,810,515 ÷ 3 = 1,936,838.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,936,838.3333 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 | 5,810,515 | |
| -1 | -5,810,515 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,810,515 ÷ 4 = 1,452,628.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,452,628.75 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 | 5,810,515 | |
| -1 | 5,810,515 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 85 | 197 | 347 | 985 | 1,735 | 3,349 | 5,899 | 16,745 | 29,495 | 68,359 | 341,795 | 1,162,103 | 5,810,515 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -85 | -197 | -347 | -985 | -1,735 | -3,349 | -5,899 | -16,745 | -29,495 | -68,359 | -341,795 | -1,162,103 | -5,810,515 |
