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 16,514,641, 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 | 16,514,641 | |
| -1 | -16,514,641 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 16,514,641.
Example:
1 x 16,514,641 = 16,514,641
and
-1 x -16,514,641 = 16,514,641
Notice both answers equal 16,514,641
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 16,514,641 and divide it by 2:
16,514,641 ÷ 2 = 8,257,320.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 8,257,320.5 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 | 16,514,641 | |
| -1 | -16,514,641 |
Now, we try dividing 16,514,641 by 3:
16,514,641 ÷ 3 = 5,504,880.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 5,504,880.3333 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 | 16,514,641 | |
| -1 | -16,514,641 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
16,514,641 ÷ 4 = 4,128,660.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 4,128,660.25 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 | 16,514,641 | |
| -1 | 16,514,641 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 13 | 53 | 143 | 583 | 689 | 2,179 | 7,579 | 23,969 | 28,327 | 115,487 | 311,597 | 1,270,357 | 1,501,331 | 16,514,641 |
| -1 | -11 | -13 | -53 | -143 | -583 | -689 | -2,179 | -7,579 | -23,969 | -28,327 | -115,487 | -311,597 | -1,270,357 | -1,501,331 | -16,514,641 |
