Given number is 8856
The factor tree of 8856 is as follows:
| 8856 | ||||||||||||
| 2 | 4428 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 2214 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 1107 | |||||||||||
| 3 | 369 | |||||||||||
| 3 | 123 | |||||||||||
| 3 | 41 | |||||||||||
8856 = 2 x 4428
4428 = 2 x 2214
2214 = 2 x 1107
1107 = 3 x 369
369 = 3 x 123
123 = 3 x 41
If we write into multiples it would be 8856 x 2
On splitting 4428 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2214 x 2.
