16 <h2>Factor Tree</h2>

15 <h2>Factor Tree</h2>

17 <p>The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows - Step 1: Firstly, 506 is divided by 2 to get 253. Here, 253 is a prime number, so it cannot be divided further. So, the prime factorization of 506 is: 2 × 253. Factor Pairs Two numbers that are multiplied to give a specific number are called factor pairs. Both positive and negative factors constitute factor pairs. Positive factor pairs of 506: (1, 506), (2, 253). Negative factor pairs of 506: (-1, -506), (-2, -253).</p>
