Given number is 4272
The factor tree of 4272 is as follows:
| 4272 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 2136 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 1068 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 534 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 267 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 89 | ||||||||||
4272 = 2 x 2136
2136 = 2 x 1068
1068 = 2 x 534
534 = 2 x 267
267 = 3 x 89
If we write into multiples it would be 4272 x 2
On splitting 2136 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 1068 x 2.
