The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -

Step 1: Firstly, 468 is divided by 2 to get 234.

Step 2: Now divide 234 by 2 to get 117.

Step 3: Then divide 117 by 3 to get 39.

Step 4: Divide 39 by 3 to get 13.

Here, 13 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 468 is: 2² × 3² × 13.
