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 13,471,375, 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 | 13,471,375 | |
| -1 | -13,471,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 13,471,375.
Example:
1 x 13,471,375 = 13,471,375
and
-1 x -13,471,375 = 13,471,375
Notice both answers equal 13,471,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 13,471,375 and divide it by 2:
13,471,375 ÷ 2 = 6,735,687.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 6,735,687.5 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 | 13,471,375 | |
| -1 | -13,471,375 |
Now, we try dividing 13,471,375 by 3:
13,471,375 ÷ 3 = 4,490,458.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,490,458.3333 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 | 13,471,375 | |
| -1 | -13,471,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
13,471,375 ÷ 4 = 3,367,843.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,367,843.75 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 | 13,471,375 | |
| -1 | 13,471,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 47 | 125 | 235 | 1,175 | 2,293 | 5,875 | 11,465 | 57,325 | 107,771 | 286,625 | 538,855 | 2,694,275 | 13,471,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -47 | -125 | -235 | -1,175 | -2,293 | -5,875 | -11,465 | -57,325 | -107,771 | -286,625 | -538,855 | -2,694,275 | -13,471,375 |
