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 13,534,261, 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 | 13,534,261 | |
| -1 | -13,534,261 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 13,534,261.
Example:
1 x 13,534,261 = 13,534,261
and
-1 x -13,534,261 = 13,534,261
Notice both answers equal 13,534,261
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 13,534,261 and divide it by 2:
13,534,261 ÷ 2 = 6,767,130.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 6,767,130.5 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 | 13,534,261 | |
| -1 | -13,534,261 |
Now, we try dividing 13,534,261 by 3:
13,534,261 ÷ 3 = 4,511,420.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,511,420.3333 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 | 13,534,261 | |
| -1 | -13,534,261 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
13,534,261 ÷ 4 = 3,383,565.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,383,565.25 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 | 13,534,261 | |
| -1 | 13,534,261 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 17 | 47 | 221 | 611 | 799 | 1,303 | 10,387 | 16,939 | 22,151 | 61,241 | 287,963 | 796,133 | 1,041,097 | 13,534,261 |
| -1 | -13 | -17 | -47 | -221 | -611 | -799 | -1,303 | -10,387 | -16,939 | -22,151 | -61,241 | -287,963 | -796,133 | -1,041,097 | -13,534,261 |
