Given number is 8600
The factor tree of 8600 is as follows:
| 8600 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 4300 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 2150 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 1075 | ||||||||||
| 5 | 215 | ||||||||||
| 5 | 43 | ||||||||||
8600 = 2 x 4300
4300 = 2 x 2150
2150 = 2 x 1075
1075 = 5 x 215
215 = 5 x 43
If we write into multiples it would be 8600 x 2
On splitting 4300 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2150 x 2.
On splitting 2150 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 1075 x 2.
On splitting 1075 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 215 x 5.
On splitting 215 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 43 x 5.
