Explanation of number 171 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 171 it is expressing 171 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 171.

Since number 171 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 171, we have to iteratively divide 171 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 171:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 171 without a remainder is 3. So the first calculation step would look like:

171 ÷ 3 = 57

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

57 ÷ 3 = 19

19 ÷ 19 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 171. It is: 3, 3, 19

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 32 × 19
