2 and 13 are the prime factors and the other factors are 1 and 26
(244) = 2 * (122) (122) = 2 * 61 so prime factors are 2, 2, 61

Factors of 15 are: 1 3 5 and 15 of which 3 and 5 are prime factors
Find 2 factors of 36 first -9 and 4- Now break these factors into smaller factors. That's your prime factorization. 9=3x3 4=2x2 3x3x2x2
In doing the factor tree, you can start with any two factors of the given number. These factors maybe prime or composite. But the resulting factors in the factor tree should always be prime numbers. It means that you have to continue factoring unless you ended up with all prime factors.

All composite numbers can be expressed as unique products of prime numbers. This is accomplished by dividing the original number and its factors by prime numbers until all the factors are prime. A factor tree can help you visualize this.Example: 210210 Divide by two.105,2 Divide by three.35,3,2 Divide by five.7,5,3,2 Stop. All the factors are prime.2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210That's the prime factorization of 210.
