Explanation of number 1260 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 1260 it is expressing 1260 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 1260.

Since number 1260 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 1260, we have to iteratively divide 1260 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 1260:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 1260 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

1260 ÷ 2 = 630

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

630 ÷ 2 = 315

315 ÷ 3 = 105

105 ÷ 3 = 35

35 ÷ 5 = 7

7 ÷ 7 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 1260. It is: 2, 2, 3, 3, 5, 7

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 32 × 5 × 7
