Explanation of number 1500 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 1500 it is expressing 1500 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 1500.

Since number 1500 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 1500, we have to iteratively divide 1500 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 1500:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 1500 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

1500 ÷ 2 = 750

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

750 ÷ 2 = 375

375 ÷ 3 = 125

125 ÷ 5 = 25

25 ÷ 5 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 1500. It is: 2, 2, 3, 5, 5, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 3 × 53
