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 14,290,925, 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 | 14,290,925 | |
| -1 | -14,290,925 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,290,925.
Example:
1 x 14,290,925 = 14,290,925
and
-1 x -14,290,925 = 14,290,925
Notice both answers equal 14,290,925
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,290,925 and divide it by 2:
14,290,925 ÷ 2 = 7,145,462.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,145,462.5 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 | 14,290,925 | |
| -1 | -14,290,925 |
Now, we try dividing 14,290,925 by 3:
14,290,925 ÷ 3 = 4,763,641.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,763,641.6667 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 | 14,290,925 | |
| -1 | -14,290,925 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,290,925 ÷ 4 = 3,572,731.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,572,731.25 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 | 14,290,925 | |
| -1 | 14,290,925 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 55 | 157 | 275 | 331 | 785 | 1,655 | 1,727 | 3,641 | 3,925 | 8,275 | 8,635 | 18,205 | 43,175 | 51,967 | 91,025 | 259,835 | 571,637 | 1,299,175 | 2,858,185 | 14,290,925 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -55 | -157 | -275 | -331 | -785 | -1,655 | -1,727 | -3,641 | -3,925 | -8,275 | -8,635 | -18,205 | -43,175 | -51,967 | -91,025 | -259,835 | -571,637 | -1,299,175 | -2,858,185 | -14,290,925 |
