Given number is 522
The factor tree of 522 is as follows:
522 | ||||||||||
2 | 261 | |||||||||
3 | 87 | |||||||||
3 | 29 | |||||||||
522 = 2 x 261
261 = 3 x 87
87 = 3 x 29
If we write into multiples it would be 522 x 2
On splitting 261 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 87 x 3.
On splitting 87 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 29 x 3.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
