Explanation of number 1200 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 1200 it is expressing 1200 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 1200.

Since number 1200 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 1200, we have to iteratively divide 1200 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 1200:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 1200 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

1200 ÷ 2 = 600

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

600 ÷ 2 = 300

300 ÷ 2 = 150

150 ÷ 2 = 75

75 ÷ 3 = 25

25 ÷ 5 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 1200. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 24 × 3 × 52
