Explanation of number 1540 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 1540 it is expressing 1540 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 1540.

Since number 1540 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 1540, we have to iteratively divide 1540 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 1540:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 1540 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

1540 ÷ 2 = 770

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

770 ÷ 2 = 385

385 ÷ 5 = 77

77 ÷ 7 = 11

11 ÷ 11 = 1
