Factor Tree of 516

Given number is 516
The factor tree of 516 is as follows:

	516
2		258
	2		129
		3		43

516 = 2 x 258

258 = 2 x 129

129 = 3 x 43

If we write into multiples it would be 516 x 2

On splitting 258 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 129 x 2.

On splitting 129 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 43 x 3.
