Given number is 112
The factor tree of 112 is as follows:
112 | ||||||||||
2 | 56 | |||||||||
2 | 28 | |||||||||
2 | 14 | |||||||||
2 | 7 | |||||||||
112 = 2 x 56
56 = 2 x 28
28 = 2 x 14
14 = 2 x 7
If we write into multiples it would be 112 x 2
On splitting 56 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 28 x 2.
On splitting 28 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 14 x 2.
On splitting 14 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 7 x 2.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
Here we are providing different methods to find the factors of the number 112. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.
