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 5,831,735, 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 | 5,831,735 | |
| -1 | -5,831,735 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,831,735.
Example:
1 x 5,831,735 = 5,831,735
and
-1 x -5,831,735 = 5,831,735
Notice both answers equal 5,831,735
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,831,735 and divide it by 2:
5,831,735 ÷ 2 = 2,915,867.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,915,867.5 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 | 5,831,735 | |
| -1 | -5,831,735 |
Now, we try dividing 5,831,735 by 3:
5,831,735 ÷ 3 = 1,943,911.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,943,911.6667 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 | 5,831,735 | |
| -1 | -5,831,735 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,831,735 ÷ 4 = 1,457,933.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,457,933.75 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 | 5,831,735 | |
| -1 | 5,831,735 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 13 | 35 | 49 | 65 | 91 | 245 | 455 | 637 | 1,831 | 3,185 | 9,155 | 12,817 | 23,803 | 64,085 | 89,719 | 119,015 | 166,621 | 448,595 | 833,105 | 1,166,347 | 5,831,735 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -13 | -35 | -49 | -65 | -91 | -245 | -455 | -637 | -1,831 | -3,185 | -9,155 | -12,817 | -23,803 | -64,085 | -89,719 | -119,015 | -166,621 | -448,595 | -833,105 | -1,166,347 | -5,831,735 |
