<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide 126 by 2 to get 63.</p>
4
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Then divide 63 by 3 to get 21.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Then divide 63 by 3 to get 21.</p>
5
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Divide 21 by 3 to get 7. Here, 7 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 252 is: 2² × 3² × 7.</p>
