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 7,194,901, 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 | 7,194,901 | |
| -1 | -7,194,901 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 7,194,901.
Example:
1 x 7,194,901 = 7,194,901
and
-1 x -7,194,901 = 7,194,901
Notice both answers equal 7,194,901
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 7,194,901 and divide it by 2:
7,194,901 ÷ 2 = 3,597,450.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,597,450.5 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 | 7,194,901 | |
| -1 | -7,194,901 |
Now, we try dividing 7,194,901 by 3:
7,194,901 ÷ 3 = 2,398,300.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,398,300.3333 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 | 7,194,901 | |
| -1 | -7,194,901 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
7,194,901 ÷ 4 = 1,798,725.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,798,725.25 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 | 7,194,901 | |
| -1 | 7,194,901 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 47 | 133 | 329 | 893 | 1,151 | 6,251 | 8,057 | 21,869 | 54,097 | 153,083 | 378,679 | 1,027,843 | 7,194,901 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -47 | -133 | -329 | -893 | -1,151 | -6,251 | -8,057 | -21,869 | -54,097 | -153,083 | -378,679 | -1,027,843 | -7,194,901 |
