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 14,601,755, 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 | 14,601,755 | |
| -1 | -14,601,755 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,601,755.
Example:
1 x 14,601,755 = 14,601,755
and
-1 x -14,601,755 = 14,601,755
Notice both answers equal 14,601,755
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,601,755 and divide it by 2:
14,601,755 ÷ 2 = 7,300,877.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,300,877.5 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 | 14,601,755 | |
| -1 | -14,601,755 |
Now, we try dividing 14,601,755 by 3:
14,601,755 ÷ 3 = 4,867,251.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,867,251.6667 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 | 14,601,755 | |
| -1 | -14,601,755 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,601,755 ÷ 4 = 3,650,438.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,650,438.75 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 | 14,601,755 | |
| -1 | 14,601,755 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 49 | 107 | 245 | 535 | 557 | 749 | 2,785 | 3,745 | 3,899 | 5,243 | 19,495 | 26,215 | 27,293 | 59,599 | 136,465 | 297,995 | 417,193 | 2,085,965 | 2,920,351 | 14,601,755 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -49 | -107 | -245 | -535 | -557 | -749 | -2,785 | -3,745 | -3,899 | -5,243 | -19,495 | -26,215 | -27,293 | -59,599 | -136,465 | -297,995 | -417,193 | -2,085,965 | -2,920,351 | -14,601,755 |
