\(8448\div \color{red}{2} = 4224\)
\(4224\div \color{red}{2} = 2112\)
\(2112\div \color{red}{2} = 1056\)
\(1056\div \color{red}{2} = 528\)
\(528\div \color{red}{2} = 264\)
\(264\div \color{red}{2} = 132\)
\(132\div \color{red}{2} = 66\)
\(66\div \color{red}{2} = 33\)
\(33\div \color{red}{3} = 11\)
\(11\div \color{red}{11} = 1\)

Factorize\( (8448) = \) \(2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 3\times 11\)
