Long chain is five carbons: pent-

Only single carbon bonds: -ane

Side chains: two methyl group on carbon 2 and one on number 4: 2,2,4-trimethyl-

So name is 2,2,4-trimethylpentane


musfiqeon: I think its 2,4,4-trimethylhexane
musfiqeon: but how? 2,2,4-trimethylpentane has only 8 carbons where as there are 9 carbons in the asked formula.
