Given number is 246
The factor tree of 246 is as follows:
246 | |||||||||
2 | 123 | ||||||||
3 | 41 | ||||||||
246 = 2 x 123
123 = 3 x 41
If we write into multiples it would be 246 x 2
On splitting 123 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 41 x 3.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
Here we are providing different methods to find the factors of the number 246. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.
