Given number is 42100
The factor tree of 42100 is as follows:
| 42100 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 21050 | |||||||||
| 2 | 10525 | |||||||||
| 5 | 2105 | |||||||||
| 5 | 421 | |||||||||
42100 = 2 x 21050
21050 = 2 x 10525
10525 = 5 x 2105
2105 = 5 x 421
If we write into multiples it would be 42100 x 2
On splitting 21050 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 10525 x 2.
