Given number is 2400
The factor tree of 2400 is as follows:
| 2400 | |||||||||||||
| 2 | 1200 | ||||||||||||
| 2 | 600 | ||||||||||||
| 2 | 300 | ||||||||||||
| 2 | 150 | ||||||||||||
| 2 | 75 | ||||||||||||
| 3 | 25 | ||||||||||||
| 5 | 5 | ||||||||||||

2400 = 2 x 1200
1200 = 2 x 600
600 = 2 x 300
300 = 2 x 150
150 = 2 x 75
75 = 3 x 25
25 = 5 x 5
If we write into multiples it would be 2400 x 2
On splitting 1200 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 600 x 2.
On splitting 600 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 300 x 2.
On splitting 300 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 150 x 2.
On splitting 150 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 75 x 2.
On splitting 75 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 25 x 3.
On splitting 25 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 5 x 5.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
Here we are providing different methods to find the factors of the number 2400. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.
