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 14,306,411, 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 | 14,306,411 | |
| -1 | -14,306,411 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,306,411.
Example:
1 x 14,306,411 = 14,306,411
and
-1 x -14,306,411 = 14,306,411
Notice both answers equal 14,306,411
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,306,411 and divide it by 2:
14,306,411 ÷ 2 = 7,153,205.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,153,205.5 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 | 14,306,411 | |
| -1 | -14,306,411 |
Now, we try dividing 14,306,411 by 3:
14,306,411 ÷ 3 = 4,768,803.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,768,803.6667 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 | 14,306,411 | |
| -1 | -14,306,411 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,306,411 ÷ 4 = 3,576,602.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,576,602.75 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 | 14,306,411 | |
| -1 | 14,306,411 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 133 | 263 | 409 | 1,841 | 2,863 | 4,997 | 7,771 | 34,979 | 54,397 | 107,567 | 752,969 | 2,043,773 | 14,306,411 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -133 | -263 | -409 | -1,841 | -2,863 | -4,997 | -7,771 | -34,979 | -54,397 | -107,567 | -752,969 | -2,043,773 | -14,306,411 |
