Given number is 5520
The factor tree of 5520 is as follows:
| 5520 | ||||||||||||
| 2 | 2760 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 1380 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 690 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 345 | |||||||||||
| 3 | 115 | |||||||||||
| 5 | 23 | |||||||||||
5520 = 2 x 2760
2760 = 2 x 1380
1380 = 2 x 690
690 = 2 x 345
345 = 3 x 115
115 = 5 x 23
If we write into multiples it would be 5520 x 2
On splitting 2760 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 1380 x 2.
On splitting 1380 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 690 x 2.
On splitting 690 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 345 x 2.
On splitting 345 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 115 x 3.
On splitting 115 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 23 x 5.
