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 1,614,095, 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 | 1,614,095 | |
| -1 | -1,614,095 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 1,614,095.
Example:
1 x 1,614,095 = 1,614,095
and
-1 x -1,614,095 = 1,614,095
Notice both answers equal 1,614,095
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 1,614,095 and divide it by 2:
1,614,095 ÷ 2 = 807,047.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 807,047.5 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 | 1,614,095 | |
| -1 | -1,614,095 |
Now, we try dividing 1,614,095 by 3:
1,614,095 ÷ 3 = 538,031.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 538,031.6667 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 | 1,614,095 | |
| -1 | -1,614,095 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
1,614,095 ÷ 4 = 403,523.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 403,523.75 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 | 1,614,095 | |
| -1 | 1,614,095 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 107 | 431 | 535 | 749 | 2,155 | 3,017 | 3,745 | 15,085 | 46,117 | 230,585 | 322,819 | 1,614,095 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -107 | -431 | -535 | -749 | -2,155 | -3,017 | -3,745 | -15,085 | -46,117 | -230,585 | -322,819 | -1,614,095 |
