Factor Tree of 24

Given number is 24
The factor tree of 24 is as follows:

	24
2		12
	2		6
		2		3

24 = 2 x 12

12 = 2 x 6

6 = 2 x 3

If we write into multiples it would be 24 x 2

On splitting 12 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 6 x 2.

On splitting 6 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 3 x 2.

Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.

• Factor Tree of 25
• Factor Tree of 26
• Factor Tree of 27
• Factor Tree of 28
• Factor Tree of 29

Here we are providing different methods to find the factors of the number 24. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.

Splitting Numbers

We can divide the number into either of its two factors. In other words, we are looking for the numbers that when multiplied together eqaul 24. Let’s start with 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 as it results in 24 on multiplying. We will now find the factors or ancestors of split factors, just like in any family tree.

Prime Factors

Let’s take a look at 24 now and we can write as 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 and place those factors on the tree. similarly to prime numbers obtained in the first step 2, 2, 2, 3 obtained here are also prime numbers and we will end up these branches.
