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 14,203,343, 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 | 14,203,343 | |
| -1 | -14,203,343 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,203,343.
Example:
1 x 14,203,343 = 14,203,343
and
-1 x -14,203,343 = 14,203,343
Notice both answers equal 14,203,343
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,203,343 and divide it by 2:
14,203,343 ÷ 2 = 7,101,671.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,101,671.5 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 | 14,203,343 | |
| -1 | -14,203,343 |
Now, we try dividing 14,203,343 by 3:
14,203,343 ÷ 3 = 4,734,447.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,734,447.6667 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 | 14,203,343 | |
| -1 | -14,203,343 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,203,343 ÷ 4 = 3,550,835.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,550,835.75 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 | 14,203,343 | |
| -1 | 14,203,343 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 41 | 77 | 121 | 287 | 409 | 451 | 847 | 2,863 | 3,157 | 4,499 | 4,961 | 16,769 | 31,493 | 34,727 | 49,489 | 117,383 | 184,459 | 346,423 | 1,291,213 | 2,029,049 | 14,203,343 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -41 | -77 | -121 | -287 | -409 | -451 | -847 | -2,863 | -3,157 | -4,499 | -4,961 | -16,769 | -31,493 | -34,727 | -49,489 | -117,383 | -184,459 | -346,423 | -1,291,213 | -2,029,049 | -14,203,343 |
