Given number is 8656
The factor tree of 8656 is as follows:
| 8656 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 4328 | |||||||||
| 2 | 2164 | |||||||||
| 2 | 1082 | |||||||||
| 2 | 541 | |||||||||
8656 = 2 x 4328
4328 = 2 x 2164
2164 = 2 x 1082
1082 = 2 x 541
If we write into multiples it would be 8656 x 2
On splitting 4328 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2164 x 2.
