How to get parent node with ancestors xpath in html agility pack

How to get parent node with ancestors XPath in HTML document in HTML Agility Pack (HAP)? For example, I have one HTML document please check below:



<html>
<body>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<a>
<h3>
</h3>
</a>

</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>


I need to get the parent node and their ancestors path in HAP. For example, the XPath of the above HTML document is



/html/body/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/div/div/div/div/a/h3


Expect xpath will be



/html/body/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]


Note that I need to get the expected Xpath dynamically - not as a manually hardcode value. For example, based on the last element I need to get the parent with ancestors path.

    <div1> is not valid HTML tag (as well as <div2>). Update your question properly and add your current code, current output
