Given number is 224
The factor tree of 224 is as follows:
224 | |||||||||||
2 | 112 | ||||||||||
2 | 56 | ||||||||||
2 | 28 | ||||||||||
2 | 14 | ||||||||||
2 | 7 | ||||||||||
224 = 2 x 112
112 = 2 x 56
56 = 2 x 28
28 = 2 x 14
14 = 2 x 7
If we write into multiples it would be 224 x 2
On splitting 112 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 56 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 224. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.
