Given number is 2970
The factor tree of 2970 is as follows:
| 2970 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 1485 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 495 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 165 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 55 | ||||||||||
| 5 | 11 | ||||||||||
2970 = 2 x 1485
1485 = 3 x 495
495 = 3 x 165
165 = 3 x 55
55 = 5 x 11
If we write into multiples it would be 2970 x 2
On splitting 1485 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 495 x 3.
On splitting 495 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 165 x 3.
On splitting 165 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 55 x 3.
On splitting 55 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 11 x 5.
