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 5,818,757, 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 | 5,818,757 | |
| -1 | -5,818,757 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,818,757.
Example:
1 x 5,818,757 = 5,818,757
and
-1 x -5,818,757 = 5,818,757
Notice both answers equal 5,818,757
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,818,757 and divide it by 2:
5,818,757 ÷ 2 = 2,909,378.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,909,378.5 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 | 5,818,757 | |
| -1 | -5,818,757 |
Now, we try dividing 5,818,757 by 3:
5,818,757 ÷ 3 = 1,939,585.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,939,585.6667 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 | 5,818,757 | |
| -1 | -5,818,757 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,818,757 ÷ 4 = 1,454,689.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,454,689.25 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 | 5,818,757 | |
| -1 | 5,818,757 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 59 | 73 | 193 | 413 | 511 | 1,351 | 4,307 | 11,387 | 14,089 | 30,149 | 79,709 | 98,623 | 831,251 | 5,818,757 |
| -1 | -7 | -59 | -73 | -193 | -413 | -511 | -1,351 | -4,307 | -11,387 | -14,089 | -30,149 | -79,709 | -98,623 | -831,251 | -5,818,757 |
