Given number is 1572
The factor tree of 1572 is as follows:
| 1572 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 786 | |||||||||
| 2 | 393 | |||||||||
| 3 | 131 | |||||||||

1572 = 2 x 786
786 = 2 x 393
393 = 3 x 131
If we write into multiples it would be 1572 x 2
On splitting 786 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 393 x 2.
On splitting 393 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 131 x 3.
