21312 = 2 x 10656
10656 = 2 x 5328
5328 = 2 x 2664
2664 = 2 x 1332
1332 = 2 x 666
666 = 2 x 333
333 = 3 x 111
111 = 3 x 37
If we write into multiples it would be 21312 x 2
On splitting 10656 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 5328 x 2.
On splitting 5328 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 2664 x 2.
