Factor Tree of 1656

Given number is 1656
The factor tree of 1656 is as follows:

	1656
2		828
	2		414
		2		207
			3		69
				3		23

1656 = 2 x 828

828 = 2 x 414

414 = 2 x 207

207 = 3 x 69

69 = 3 x 23

If we write into multiples it would be 1656 x 2

On splitting 828 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 414 x 2.

On splitting 414 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 207 x 2.

On splitting 207 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 69 x 3.

On splitting 69 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 23 x 3.
