Since 132 is an even number (it ends in 2), it is divisible by 2 (a Prime number).

132 ÷ 2 = 66 (66 also is an even number, it ends in 6)

66 ÷ 2 = 33 (33 is an odd number, it is not divisible by 2, but it is divisible by 3 which is a prime number, since the sum of its digits, 6, is divisible by 3)

33 ÷ 3 = 11 (11 is a prime number).

Now we have all the prime factors of 132, and we can represent 132 as a product of its prime factors such as,

132 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 = 22 x 3 x 11
