The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows:

Step 1: Firstly, -504 is divided by -2 to get 252.

Step 2: Now divide 252 by 2 to get 126.

Step 3: Then divide 126 by 2 to get 63.

Step 4: Divide 63 by 3 to get 21.

Step 5: Divide 21 by 3 to get 7. Here, 7 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of -504 is: -1 × 2³ × 3² × 7.

Factor Pairs: Two numbers that are multiplied to give a specific number are called factor pairs. Both positive and negative factors constitute factor pairs.
