| 5 | 7 | |||||||||||||||
40320 = 2 x 20160
20160 = 2 x 10080
10080 = 2 x 5040
5040 = 2 x 2520
2520 = 2 x 1260
1260 = 2 x 630
630 = 2 x 315
315 = 3 x 105
105 = 3 x 35
35 = 5 x 7
If we write into multiples it would be 40320 x 2
On splitting 20160 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 10080 x 2.
On splitting 10080 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 5040 x 2.
On splitting 5040 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2520 x 2.
On splitting 2520 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 1260 x 2.
On splitting 1260 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 630 x 2.
On splitting 630 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 315 x 2.
On splitting 315 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 105 x 3.
On splitting 105 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 35 x 3.
On splitting 35 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 7 x 5.
