<h2>Factor Tree</h2>
33
<p>The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. For 983, since it is a prime number, the factor tree is very straightforward: 983 Here, 983 is the smallest prime number, and it cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 983 is: 983.</p>
