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 15,061,775, 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 | 15,061,775 | |
| -1 | -15,061,775 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 15,061,775.
Example:
1 x 15,061,775 = 15,061,775
and
-1 x -15,061,775 = 15,061,775
Notice both answers equal 15,061,775
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 15,061,775 and divide it by 2:
15,061,775 ÷ 2 = 7,530,887.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 7,530,887.5 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 | 15,061,775 | |
| -1 | -15,061,775 |
Now, we try dividing 15,061,775 by 3:
15,061,775 ÷ 3 = 5,020,591.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 5,020,591.6667 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 | 15,061,775 | |
| -1 | -15,061,775 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
15,061,775 ÷ 4 = 3,765,443.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 3,765,443.75 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 | 15,061,775 | |
| -1 | 15,061,775 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 25 | 37 | 95 | 185 | 475 | 703 | 857 | 925 | 3,515 | 4,285 | 16,283 | 17,575 | 21,425 | 31,709 | 81,415 | 158,545 | 407,075 | 602,471 | 792,725 | 3,012,355 | 15,061,775 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -25 | -37 | -95 | -185 | -475 | -703 | -857 | -925 | -3,515 | -4,285 | -16,283 | -17,575 | -21,425 | -31,709 | -81,415 | -158,545 | -407,075 | -602,471 | -792,725 | -3,012,355 | -15,061,775 |
