Factor Tree of 520

Given number is 520
The factor tree of 520 is as follows:

	520
2		260
	2		130
		2		65
			5		13

520 = 2 x 260

260 = 2 x 130

130 = 2 x 65

65 = 5 x 13

If we write into multiples it would be 520 x 2

On splitting 260 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 130 x 2.

On splitting 130 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 65 x 2.

On splitting 65 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 13 x 5.

Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
