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 5,107,333, 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 | 5,107,333 | |
| -1 | -5,107,333 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 5,107,333.
Example:
1 x 5,107,333 = 5,107,333
and
-1 x -5,107,333 = 5,107,333
Notice both answers equal 5,107,333
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 5,107,333 and divide it by 2:
5,107,333 ÷ 2 = 2,553,666.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 2,553,666.5 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 | 5,107,333 | |
| -1 | -5,107,333 |
Now, we try dividing 5,107,333 by 3:
5,107,333 ÷ 3 = 1,702,444.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 1,702,444.3333 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 | 5,107,333 | |
| -1 | -5,107,333 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
5,107,333 ÷ 4 = 1,276,833.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,276,833.25 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 | 5,107,333 | |
| -1 | 5,107,333 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 19 | 77 | 133 | 209 | 1,463 | 3,491 | 24,437 | 38,401 | 66,329 | 268,807 | 464,303 | 729,619 | 5,107,333 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -19 | -77 | -133 | -209 | -1,463 | -3,491 | -24,437 | -38,401 | -66,329 | -268,807 | -464,303 | -729,619 | -5,107,333 |
