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 14,737,645, 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 | 14,737,645 | |
| -1 | -14,737,645 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 14,737,645.
Example:
1 x 14,737,645 = 14,737,645
and
-1 x -14,737,645 = 14,737,645
Notice both answers equal 14,737,645
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 14,737,645 and divide it by 2:
14,737,645 ÷ 2 = 7,368,822.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,368,822.5 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 | 14,737,645 | |
| -1 | -14,737,645 |
Now, we try dividing 14,737,645 by 3:
14,737,645 ÷ 3 = 4,912,548.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 4,912,548.3333 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 | 14,737,645 | |
| -1 | -14,737,645 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
14,737,645 ÷ 4 = 3,684,411.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,684,411.25 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 | 14,737,645 | |
| -1 | 14,737,645 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 107 | 163 | 169 | 535 | 815 | 845 | 1,391 | 2,119 | 6,955 | 10,595 | 17,441 | 18,083 | 27,547 | 87,205 | 90,415 | 137,735 | 226,733 | 1,133,665 | 2,947,529 | 14,737,645 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -107 | -163 | -169 | -535 | -815 | -845 | -1,391 | -2,119 | -6,955 | -10,595 | -17,441 | -18,083 | -27,547 | -87,205 | -90,415 | -137,735 | -226,733 | -1,133,665 | -2,947,529 | -14,737,645 |
