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 14,534,525, 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 | 14,534,525 | |
| -1 | -14,534,525 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,534,525.
Example:
1 x 14,534,525 = 14,534,525
and
-1 x -14,534,525 = 14,534,525
Notice both answers equal 14,534,525
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,534,525 and divide it by 2:
14,534,525 ÷ 2 = 7,267,262.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,267,262.5 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 | 14,534,525 | |
| -1 | -14,534,525 |
Now, we try dividing 14,534,525 by 3:
14,534,525 ÷ 3 = 4,844,841.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,844,841.6667 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 | 14,534,525 | |
| -1 | -14,534,525 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,534,525 ÷ 4 = 3,633,631.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,633,631.25 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 | 14,534,525 | |
| -1 | 14,534,525 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 25 | 37 | 95 | 185 | 475 | 703 | 827 | 925 | 3,515 | 4,135 | 15,713 | 17,575 | 20,675 | 30,599 | 78,565 | 152,995 | 392,825 | 581,381 | 764,975 | 2,906,905 | 14,534,525 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -25 | -37 | -95 | -185 | -475 | -703 | -827 | -925 | -3,515 | -4,135 | -15,713 | -17,575 | -20,675 | -30,599 | -78,565 | -152,995 | -392,825 | -581,381 | -764,975 | -2,906,905 | -14,534,525 |
