Given number is 724
The factor tree of 724 is as follows:
724 | |||||||||
2 | 362 | ||||||||
2 | 181 | ||||||||
724 = 2 x 362
362 = 2 x 181
If we write into multiples it would be 724 x 2
On splitting 362 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 181 x 2.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
