Given number is 9724
The factor tree of 9724 is as follows:
| 9724 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 4862 | |||||||||
| 2 | 2431 | |||||||||
| 11 | 221 | |||||||||
| 13 | 17 | |||||||||
9724 = 2 x 4862
4862 = 2 x 2431
2431 = 11 x 221
221 = 13 x 17
If we write into multiples it would be 9724 x 2
On splitting 4862 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2431 x 2.
