Given number is 936
The factor tree of 936 is as follows:
| 936 | |||||||||||
| 2 | 468 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 234 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 117 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 39 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 13 | ||||||||||

936 = 2 x 468
468 = 2 x 234
234 = 2 x 117
117 = 3 x 39
39 = 3 x 13
If we write into multiples it would be 936 x 2
On splitting 468 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 234 x 2.
On splitting 234 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 117 x 2.
On splitting 117 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 39 x 3.
On splitting 39 further and writing it as multiples of numbers it would be 13 x 3.
