Factor Tree of 260

Given number is 260
The factor tree of 260 is as follows:

	260
2		130
	2		65
		5		13

260 = 2 x 130

130 = 2 x 65

65 = 5 x 13

If we write into multiples it would be 260 x 2

On splitting 130 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 65 x 2.

On splitting 65 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 13 x 5.

Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.

• Factor Tree of 262
• Factor Tree of 264
• Factor Tree of 266
• Factor Tree of 268
• Factor Tree of 270

Here we are providing different methods to find the factors of the number 260. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.
