Given number is 3948
The factor tree of 3948 is as follows:
3948 | ||||||||||
2 | 1974 | |||||||||
2 | 987 | |||||||||
3 | 329 | |||||||||
7 | 47 | |||||||||
3948 = 2 x 1974
1974 = 2 x 987
987 = 3 x 329
329 = 7 x 47
If we write into multiples it would be 3948 x 2
On splitting 1974 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 987 x 2.
On splitting 987 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 329 x 3.
