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 14,182,063, 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 | 14,182,063 | |
| -1 | -14,182,063 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,182,063.
Example:
1 x 14,182,063 = 14,182,063
and
-1 x -14,182,063 = 14,182,063
Notice both answers equal 14,182,063
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,182,063 and divide it by 2:
14,182,063 ÷ 2 = 7,091,031.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,091,031.5 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 | 14,182,063 | |
| -1 | -14,182,063 |
Now, we try dividing 14,182,063 by 3:
14,182,063 ÷ 3 = 4,727,354.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,727,354.3333 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 | 14,182,063 | |
| -1 | -14,182,063 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,182,063 ÷ 4 = 3,545,515.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,545,515.75 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 | 14,182,063 | |
| -1 | 14,182,063 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 37 | 119 | 259 | 629 | 3,221 | 4,403 | 22,547 | 54,757 | 119,177 | 383,299 | 834,239 | 2,026,009 | 14,182,063 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -37 | -119 | -259 | -629 | -3,221 | -4,403 | -22,547 | -54,757 | -119,177 | -383,299 | -834,239 | -2,026,009 | -14,182,063 |
