There are at least nine different factor trees for 2000, one for each of its non-trivial factor pairs. Eighteen, if you consider the reverse of each pair to be a separate pair. The important information to remember is that it doesn't matter what factor pair you choose to start the tree. But since, if done correctly, all the factor trees will have the same number of branches and arrive at the same factors for the bottom branch, it's a waste of time to write them all out.

A factor tree is a way of notating the process of finding the prime factorization of a given number. As long as the bottom branch consists entirely of prime numbers, it doesn't really matter how they're lined up.
the answer is pretty simple. 9009 x 1003 x 3 5 x 205 x 42 x 2answer: it depends how you do it because you can do in any way really.
Many people find factor trees to be the easiest.
A factor tree is just a way to display the prime factorization. Once you have that, you can find the GCF. 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 = 40 Select the common factors. 2 x 2 x 2 = 8, the GCF
all you have to do is find 2 factors that equals 25 which is 5 and 5 and then your done basically because 5 are prime numbers, they have no fators. there are other numbers you can use to but 5 and 5 is one way.
