Factor Tree of 15500

Given number is 15500
The factor tree of 15500 is as follows:

15500 = 2 x 7750

7750 = 2 x 3875

3875 = 5 x 775

775 = 5 x 155

155 = 5 x 31

If we write into multiples it would be 15500 x 2

On splitting 7750 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 3875 x 2.
