Given number is 228
The factor tree of 228 is as follows:
228 | ||||||||||
2 | 114 | |||||||||
2 | 57 | |||||||||
3 | 19 | |||||||||
228 = 2 x 114
114 = 2 x 57
57 = 3 x 19
If we write into multiples it would be 228 x 2
On splitting 114 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 57 x 2.
On splitting 57 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 19 x 3.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
Here we are providing different methods to find the factors of the number 228. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.
