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 13,741,277, 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 | 13,741,277 | |
| -1 | -13,741,277 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 13,741,277.
Example:
1 x 13,741,277 = 13,741,277
and
-1 x -13,741,277 = 13,741,277
Notice both answers equal 13,741,277
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 13,741,277 and divide it by 2:
13,741,277 ÷ 2 = 6,870,638.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 6,870,638.5 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 | 13,741,277 | |
| -1 | -13,741,277 |
Now, we try dividing 13,741,277 by 3:
13,741,277 ÷ 3 = 4,580,425.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,580,425.6667 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 | 13,741,277 | |
| -1 | -13,741,277 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
13,741,277 ÷ 4 = 3,435,319.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,435,319.25 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 | 13,741,277 | |
| -1 | 13,741,277 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 31 | 59 | 341 | 649 | 683 | 1,829 | 7,513 | 20,119 | 21,173 | 40,297 | 232,903 | 443,267 | 1,249,207 | 13,741,277 |
| -1 | -11 | -31 | -59 | -341 | -649 | -683 | -1,829 | -7,513 | -20,119 | -21,173 | -40,297 | -232,903 | -443,267 | -1,249,207 | -13,741,277 |
