Given number is 546
The factor tree of 546 is as follows:
546 | ||||||||||
2 | 273 | |||||||||
3 | 91 | |||||||||
7 | 13 | |||||||||
546 = 2 x 273
273 = 3 x 91
91 = 7 x 13
If we write into multiples it would be 546 x 2
On splitting 273 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 91 x 3.
On splitting 91 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 13 x 7.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
