Given number is 873
The factor tree of 873 is as follows:
| 873 | |||||||||
| 3 | 291 | ||||||||
| 3 | 97 | ||||||||

873 = 3 x 291
291 = 3 x 97
If we write into multiples it would be 873 x 3
On splitting 291 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 97 x 3.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
