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 14,041,109, 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 | 14,041,109 | |
| -1 | -14,041,109 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,041,109.
Example:
1 x 14,041,109 = 14,041,109
and
-1 x -14,041,109 = 14,041,109
Notice both answers equal 14,041,109
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,041,109 and divide it by 2:
14,041,109 ÷ 2 = 7,020,554.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,020,554.5 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 | 14,041,109 | |
| -1 | -14,041,109 |
Now, we try dividing 14,041,109 by 3:
14,041,109 ÷ 3 = 4,680,369.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,680,369.6667 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 | 14,041,109 | |
| -1 | -14,041,109 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,041,109 ÷ 4 = 3,510,277.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,510,277.25 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 | 14,041,109 | |
| -1 | 14,041,109 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 23 | 31 | 47 | 419 | 713 | 1,081 | 1,457 | 9,637 | 12,989 | 19,693 | 33,511 | 298,747 | 452,939 | 610,483 | 14,041,109 |
| -1 | -23 | -31 | -47 | -419 | -713 | -1,081 | -1,457 | -9,637 | -12,989 | -19,693 | -33,511 | -298,747 | -452,939 | -610,483 | -14,041,109 |
