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 16,064,461, 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 | 16,064,461 | |
| -1 | -16,064,461 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 16,064,461.
Example:
1 x 16,064,461 = 16,064,461
and
-1 x -16,064,461 = 16,064,461
Notice both answers equal 16,064,461
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 16,064,461 and divide it by 2:
16,064,461 ÷ 2 = 8,032,230.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 8,032,230.5 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 | 16,064,461 | |
| -1 | -16,064,461 |
Now, we try dividing 16,064,461 by 3:
16,064,461 ÷ 3 = 5,354,820.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 5,354,820.3333 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 | 16,064,461 | |
| -1 | -16,064,461 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
16,064,461 ÷ 4 = 4,016,115.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 4,016,115.25 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 | 16,064,461 | |
| -1 | 16,064,461 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 59 | 97 | 401 | 413 | 679 | 2,807 | 5,723 | 23,659 | 38,897 | 40,061 | 165,613 | 272,279 | 2,294,923 | 16,064,461 |
| -1 | -7 | -59 | -97 | -401 | -413 | -679 | -2,807 | -5,723 | -23,659 | -38,897 | -40,061 | -165,613 | -272,279 | -2,294,923 | -16,064,461 |
