Given number is 4956
The factor tree of 4956 is as follows:
| 4956 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 2478 | |||||||||
| 2 | 1239 | |||||||||
| 3 | 413 | |||||||||
| 7 | 59 | |||||||||
4956 = 2 x 2478
2478 = 2 x 1239
1239 = 3 x 413
413 = 7 x 59
If we write into multiples it would be 4956 x 2
On splitting 2478 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 1239 x 2.
On splitting 1239 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 413 x 3.
