This is very simple question

I'm not sure those are factors? But then again I never was good at math

for say 13 you could just count up by two and then find the largest 
number you can make of the twos and then move down until you find the 
next one and then add 1  say  you start with 13=[2,2,2,2,2,2,1] ?

then you know you have [12,1] 12 is a multiple of 2 or do you want 
powers? if you want powers you could make the nessisary logic adjustments

Why exactly do you want this anyways?
