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 2,214,095, 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 | 2,214,095 | |
| -1 | -2,214,095 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 2,214,095.
Example:
1 x 2,214,095 = 2,214,095
and
-1 x -2,214,095 = 2,214,095
Notice both answers equal 2,214,095
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 2,214,095 and divide it by 2:
2,214,095 ÷ 2 = 1,107,047.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 1,107,047.5 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 | 2,214,095 | |
| -1 | -2,214,095 |
Now, we try dividing 2,214,095 by 3:
2,214,095 ÷ 3 = 738,031.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 738,031.6667 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 | 2,214,095 | |
| -1 | -2,214,095 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
2,214,095 ÷ 4 = 553,523.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 553,523.75 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 | 2,214,095 | |
| -1 | 2,214,095 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 23 | 65 | 115 | 299 | 1,481 | 1,495 | 7,405 | 19,253 | 34,063 | 96,265 | 170,315 | 442,819 | 2,214,095 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -23 | -65 | -115 | -299 | -1,481 | -1,495 | -7,405 | -19,253 | -34,063 | -96,265 | -170,315 | -442,819 | -2,214,095 |
