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 14,044,015, 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 | 14,044,015 | |
| -1 | -14,044,015 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,044,015.
Example:
1 x 14,044,015 = 14,044,015
and
-1 x -14,044,015 = 14,044,015
Notice both answers equal 14,044,015
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,044,015 and divide it by 2:
14,044,015 ÷ 2 = 7,022,007.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,022,007.5 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 | 14,044,015 | |
| -1 | -14,044,015 |
Now, we try dividing 14,044,015 by 3:
14,044,015 ÷ 3 = 4,681,338.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,681,338.3333 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 | 14,044,015 | |
| -1 | -14,044,015 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,044,015 ÷ 4 = 3,511,003.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,511,003.75 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 | 14,044,015 | |
| -1 | 14,044,015 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 43 | 83 | 215 | 415 | 787 | 3,569 | 3,935 | 17,845 | 33,841 | 65,321 | 169,205 | 326,605 | 2,808,803 | 14,044,015 |
| -1 | -5 | -43 | -83 | -215 | -415 | -787 | -3,569 | -3,935 | -17,845 | -33,841 | -65,321 | -169,205 | -326,605 | -2,808,803 | -14,044,015 |
