Given number is 276
The factor tree of 276 is as follows:
276 | ||||||||||
2 | 138 | |||||||||
2 | 69 | |||||||||
3 | 23 | |||||||||
276 = 2 x 138
138 = 2 x 69
69 = 3 x 23
If we write into multiples it would be 276 x 2
On splitting 138 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 69 x 2.
On splitting 69 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 23 x 3.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
Here we are providing different methods to find the factors of the number 276. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.
