Explanation of number 1600 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 1600 it is expressing 1600 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 1600.

Since number 1600 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 1600, we have to iteratively divide 1600 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 1600:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 1600 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

1600 ÷ 2 = 800

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

800 ÷ 2 = 400

400 ÷ 2 = 200

200 ÷ 2 = 100

100 ÷ 2 = 50

50 ÷ 2 = 25

25 ÷ 5 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 1600. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 26 × 52
