Given number is 9660
The factor tree of 9660 is as follows:
| 9660 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 4830 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 2415 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 805 | ||||||||||
| 5 | 161 | ||||||||||
| 7 | 23 | ||||||||||
9660 = 2 x 4830
4830 = 2 x 2415
2415 = 3 x 805
805 = 5 x 161
161 = 7 x 23
If we write into multiples it would be 9660 x 2
On splitting 4830 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2415 x 2.
