Given number is 6660
The factor tree of 6660 is as follows:
| 6660 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 3330 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 1665 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 555 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 185 | ||||||||||
| 5 | 37 | ||||||||||
6660 = 2 x 3330
3330 = 2 x 1665
1665 = 3 x 555
555 = 3 x 185
185 = 5 x 37
If we write into multiples it would be 6660 x 2
On splitting 3330 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 1665 x 2.
