Factor Tree of 636

Given number is 636
The factor tree of 636 is as follows:

	636
2		318
	2		159
		3		53

636 = 2 x 318

318 = 2 x 159

159 = 3 x 53

If we write into multiples it would be 636 x 2

On splitting 318 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 159 x 2.

On splitting 159 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 53 x 3.
