Given number is 3372
The factor tree of 3372 is as follows:
| 3372 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 1686 | |||||||||
| 2 | 843 | |||||||||
| 3 | 281 | |||||||||
3372 = 2 x 1686
1686 = 2 x 843
843 = 3 x 281
If we write into multiples it would be 3372 x 2
On splitting 1686 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 843 x 2.
On splitting 843 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 281 x 3.
