Given number is 3248
The factor tree of 3248 is as follows:
3248 | |||||||||||
2 | 1624 | ||||||||||
2 | 812 | ||||||||||
2 | 406 | ||||||||||
2 | 203 | ||||||||||
7 | 29 | ||||||||||
3248 = 2 x 1624
1624 = 2 x 812
812 = 2 x 406
406 = 2 x 203
203 = 7 x 29
If we write into multiples it would be 3248 x 2
On splitting 1624 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 812 x 2.
On splitting 812 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 406 x 2.
On splitting 406 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 203 x 2.
On splitting 203 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 29 x 7.
