  • Look at the 2 factors and determine if at least one of them is not prime;
  • If it is not a prime factor it;
  • Repeat this process until all factors are prime.

Supose you want to find the factor tree of 32. In this case, you show use the folowing steps:


     32
    /  \
   2   16
      /  \
     2   8
        /  \
       2    4
          /  \
         2    2

 32 is not prime --> divide by 2

 16 is not prime --> divide by 2

 8 is not prime --> divide by 2

  4 is not prime --> divide by 2

  2 is prime --> stop

Note that these dividers (in this case all are equal to 2) are the prime factors. They are also called the leaves of the factor tree.
