Explanation of number 153 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 153 it is expressing 153 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 153.

Since number 153 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 153, we have to iteratively divide 153 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 153:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 153 without a remainder is 3. So the first calculation step would look like:

153 ÷ 3 = 51

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

51 ÷ 3 = 17

17 ÷ 17 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 153. It is: 3, 3, 17

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 32 × 17
