Given number is 4248
The factor tree of 4248 is as follows:
4248 | |||||||||||
2 | 2124 | ||||||||||
2 | 1062 | ||||||||||
2 | 531 | ||||||||||
3 | 177 | ||||||||||
3 | 59 | ||||||||||
4248 = 2 x 2124
2124 = 2 x 1062
1062 = 2 x 531
531 = 3 x 177
177 = 3 x 59
If we write into multiples it would be 4248 x 2
On splitting 2124 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 1062 x 2.
On splitting 1062 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 531 x 2.
On splitting 531 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 177 x 3.
