Given number is 5964
The factor tree of 5964 is as follows:
| 5964 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 2982 | |||||||||
| 2 | 1491 | |||||||||
| 3 | 497 | |||||||||
| 7 | 71 | |||||||||
5964 = 2 x 2982
2982 = 2 x 1491
1491 = 3 x 497
497 = 7 x 71
If we write into multiples it would be 5964 x 2
On splitting 2982 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 1491 x 2.
