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

Step 1: Firstly, 204 is divided by 2 to get 102.

Step 2: Now divide 102 by 2 to get 51.

Step 3: Then divide 51 by 3 to get 17.

Here, 17 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.

So, the prime factorization of 204 is: 2² × 3 × 17.

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 204: (1, 204), (2, 102), (3, 68), (4, 51), (6, 34), and (12, 17).

Negative factor pairs of 204: (-1, -204), (-2, -102), (-3, -68), (-4, -51), (-6, -34), and (-12, -17).
