Factor Tree of 280
How to find the Factor Tree of 280
Given number is 280
The factor tree of 280 is as follows:
| 280 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 140 | |||||||||
| 2 | 70 | |||||||||
| 2 | 35 | |||||||||
| 5 | 7 | |||||||||
280 = 2 x 140
140 = 2 x 70
70 = 2 x 35
35 = 5 x 7
If we write into multiples it would be 280 x 2
On splitting 140 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 70 x 2.
On splitting 70 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 35 x 2.
On splitting 35 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 7 x 5.
