Factor Tree of 9720

Given number is 9720
The factor tree of 9720 is as follows:

9720 = 2 x 4860

4860 = 2 x 2430

2430 = 2 x 1215

1215 = 3 x 405

405 = 3 x 135

135 = 3 x 45

45 = 3 x 15

15 = 3 x 5

If we write into multiples it would be 9720 x 2

On splitting 4860 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2430 x 2.
