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 14,251,325, 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 | 14,251,325 | |
| -1 | -14,251,325 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,251,325.
Example:
1 x 14,251,325 = 14,251,325
and
-1 x -14,251,325 = 14,251,325
Notice both answers equal 14,251,325
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,251,325 and divide it by 2:
14,251,325 ÷ 2 = 7,125,662.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,125,662.5 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 | 14,251,325 | |
| -1 | -14,251,325 |
Now, we try dividing 14,251,325 by 3:
14,251,325 ÷ 3 = 4,750,441.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,750,441.6667 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 | 14,251,325 | |
| -1 | -14,251,325 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,251,325 ÷ 4 = 3,562,831.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,562,831.25 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 | 14,251,325 | |
| -1 | 14,251,325 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 29 | 55 | 145 | 275 | 319 | 725 | 1,595 | 1,787 | 7,975 | 8,935 | 19,657 | 44,675 | 51,823 | 98,285 | 259,115 | 491,425 | 570,053 | 1,295,575 | 2,850,265 | 14,251,325 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -29 | -55 | -145 | -275 | -319 | -725 | -1,595 | -1,787 | -7,975 | -8,935 | -19,657 | -44,675 | -51,823 | -98,285 | -259,115 | -491,425 | -570,053 | -1,295,575 | -2,850,265 | -14,251,325 |
