A factor tree is a type of diagram in which we find the factors of a number and then the factors of those numbers until we can no longer factor them. We can get the factor tree of 80 easily by putting the number 80 in the input box of the Factor Tree Calculator.
Check the different methods to find the factor tree of 80 in the following sections
80 | ||||||||||
2 | 40 | |||||||||
2 | 20 | |||||||||
2 | 10 | |||||||||
2 | 5 | |||||||||
80 = 2 x 40
40 = 2 x 20
20 = 2 x 10
10 = 2 x 5
If we write into multiples it would be 80 x 2
On splitting 40 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 20 x 2.
On splitting 20 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 10 x 2.
On splitting 10 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 5 x 2.
Altogether expressing the number in terms of prime factors would be 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5.

Here we are providing different methods to find the factors of the number 80. They are splitting numbers and prime factors.
Splitting Numbers
We can divide the number into either of its two factors. In other words, we are looking for the numbers that when multiplied together eqaul 80. Let’s start with 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 as it results in 80 on multiplying. We will now find the factors or ancestors of split factors, just like in any family tree.
Prime Factors
Let’s take a look at 80 now and we can write as 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 and place those factors on the tree. similarly to prime numbers obtained in the first step 2, 2, 2, 2, 5 obtained here are also prime numbers and we will end up these branches.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
