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 14,314,027, 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 | 14,314,027 | |
| -1 | -14,314,027 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,314,027.
Example:
1 x 14,314,027 = 14,314,027
and
-1 x -14,314,027 = 14,314,027
Notice both answers equal 14,314,027
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,314,027 and divide it by 2:
14,314,027 ÷ 2 = 7,157,013.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,157,013.5 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 | 14,314,027 | |
| -1 | -14,314,027 |
Now, we try dividing 14,314,027 by 3:
14,314,027 ÷ 3 = 4,771,342.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,771,342.3333 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 | 14,314,027 | |
| -1 | -14,314,027 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,314,027 ÷ 4 = 3,578,506.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,578,506.75 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 | 14,314,027 | |
| -1 | 14,314,027 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 23 | 49 | 91 | 161 | 299 | 637 | 977 | 1,127 | 2,093 | 6,839 | 12,701 | 14,651 | 22,471 | 47,873 | 88,907 | 157,297 | 292,123 | 622,349 | 1,101,079 | 2,044,861 | 14,314,027 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -23 | -49 | -91 | -161 | -299 | -637 | -977 | -1,127 | -2,093 | -6,839 | -12,701 | -14,651 | -22,471 | -47,873 | -88,907 | -157,297 | -292,123 | -622,349 | -1,101,079 | -2,044,861 | -14,314,027 |
