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 14,674,375, 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 | 14,674,375 | |
| -1 | -14,674,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,674,375.
Example:
1 x 14,674,375 = 14,674,375
and
-1 x -14,674,375 = 14,674,375
Notice both answers equal 14,674,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,674,375 and divide it by 2:
14,674,375 ÷ 2 = 7,337,187.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,337,187.5 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 | 14,674,375 | |
| -1 | -14,674,375 |
Now, we try dividing 14,674,375 by 3:
14,674,375 ÷ 3 = 4,891,458.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,891,458.3333 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 | 14,674,375 | |
| -1 | -14,674,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,674,375 ÷ 4 = 3,668,593.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,668,593.75 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 | 14,674,375 | |
| -1 | 14,674,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 53 | 125 | 265 | 443 | 625 | 1,325 | 2,215 | 6,625 | 11,075 | 23,479 | 33,125 | 55,375 | 117,395 | 276,875 | 586,975 | 2,934,875 | 14,674,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -53 | -125 | -265 | -443 | -625 | -1,325 | -2,215 | -6,625 | -11,075 | -23,479 | -33,125 | -55,375 | -117,395 | -276,875 | -586,975 | -2,934,875 | -14,674,375 |
