Given number is 12402
The factor tree of 12402 is as follows:
| 12402 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 6201 | |||||||||
| 3 | 2067 | |||||||||
| 3 | 689 | |||||||||
| 13 | 53 | |||||||||
12402 = 2 x 6201
6201 = 3 x 2067
2067 = 3 x 689
689 = 13 x 53
If we write into multiples it would be 12402 x 2
On splitting 6201 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2067 x 3.
On splitting 2067 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 689 x 3.
