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 14,233,109, 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 | 14,233,109 | |
| -1 | -14,233,109 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,233,109.
Example:
1 x 14,233,109 = 14,233,109
and
-1 x -14,233,109 = 14,233,109
Notice both answers equal 14,233,109
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,233,109 and divide it by 2:
14,233,109 ÷ 2 = 7,116,554.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,116,554.5 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 | 14,233,109 | |
| -1 | -14,233,109 |
Now, we try dividing 14,233,109 by 3:
14,233,109 ÷ 3 = 4,744,369.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,744,369.6667 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 | 14,233,109 | |
| -1 | -14,233,109 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,233,109 ÷ 4 = 3,558,277.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,558,277.25 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 | 14,233,109 | |
| -1 | 14,233,109 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 19 | 41 | 121 | 151 | 209 | 451 | 779 | 1,661 | 2,299 | 2,869 | 4,961 | 6,191 | 8,569 | 18,271 | 31,559 | 68,101 | 94,259 | 117,629 | 347,149 | 749,111 | 1,293,919 | 14,233,109 |
| -1 | -11 | -19 | -41 | -121 | -151 | -209 | -451 | -779 | -1,661 | -2,299 | -2,869 | -4,961 | -6,191 | -8,569 | -18,271 | -31,559 | -68,101 | -94,259 | -117,629 | -347,149 | -749,111 | -1,293,919 | -14,233,109 |
