Given number is 8760
The factor tree of 8760 is as follows:
| 8760 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 4380 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 2190 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 1095 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 365 | ||||||||||
| 5 | 73 | ||||||||||
8760 = 2 x 4380
4380 = 2 x 2190
2190 = 2 x 1095
1095 = 3 x 365
365 = 5 x 73
If we write into multiples it would be 8760 x 2
On splitting 4380 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2190 x 2.
