Factor Tree of 656

Given number is 656
The factor tree of 656 is as follows:

	656
2		328
	2		164
		2		82
			2		41

656 = 2 x 328

328 = 2 x 164

164 = 2 x 82

82 = 2 x 41

If we write into multiples it would be 656 x 2

On splitting 328 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 164 x 2.

On splitting 164 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 82 x 2.

On splitting 82 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 41 x 2.
