Given number is 16260
The factor tree of 16260 is as follows:
| 16260 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 8130 | |||||||||
| 2 | 4065 | |||||||||
| 3 | 1355 | |||||||||
| 5 | 271 | |||||||||
16260 = 2 x 8130
8130 = 2 x 4065
4065 = 3 x 1355
1355 = 5 x 271
If we write into multiples it would be 16260 x 2
On splitting 8130 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 4065 x 2.
