Given number is 1472
The factor tree of 1472 is as follows:
| 1472 | ||||||||||||
| 2 | 736 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 368 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 184 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 92 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 46 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 23 | |||||||||||

1472 = 2 x 736
736 = 2 x 368
368 = 2 x 184
184 = 2 x 92
92 = 2 x 46
46 = 2 x 23
If we write into multiples it would be 1472 x 2
On splitting 736 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 368 x 2.
On splitting 368 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 184 x 2.
On splitting 184 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 92 x 2.
On splitting 92 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 46 x 2.
On splitting 46 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 23 x 2.
