Given number is 976
The factor tree of 976 is as follows:
976 | ||||||||||
2 | 488 | |||||||||
2 | 244 | |||||||||
2 | 122 | |||||||||
2 | 61 | |||||||||
976 = 2 x 488
488 = 2 x 244
244 = 2 x 122
122 = 2 x 61
If we write into multiples it would be 976 x 2
On splitting 488 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 244 x 2.
On splitting 244 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 122 x 2.
On splitting 122 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 61 x 2.
Here are examples of Factor tree calculations.
