Factor Tree of 2856

Given number is 2856
The factor tree of 2856 is as follows:

2856 = 2 x 1428

1428 = 2 x 714

714 = 2 x 357

357 = 3 x 119

119 = 7 x 17

If we write into multiples it would be 2856 x 2

On splitting 1428 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 714 x 2.

On splitting 714 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 357 x 2.

On splitting 357 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 119 x 3.

On splitting 119 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 17 x 7.
