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

Step 1: Firstly, 300 is divided by 2 to get 150.

Step 2: Now divide 150 by 2 to get 75.

Step 3: Then divide 75 by 3 to get 25.

Step 4: Divide 25 by 5 to get 5. Here, 5 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 300 is: 2² × 3 × 5².

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 300: (1, 300), (2, 150), (3, 100), (4, 75), (5, 60), (6, 50), (10, 30), (12, 25), (15, 20).

Negative factor pairs of 300: (-1, -300), (-2, -150), (-3, -100), (-4, -75), (-5, -60), (-6, -50), (-10, -30), (-12, -25), (-15, -20).
