Prime Factorization of 174

What is the Prime Factorization of 174?

Answer: Prime Factors of 174: 2, 3, 29

Explanation of number 174 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 174 it is expressing 174 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 174.

Since number 174 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 174, we have to iteratively divide 174 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 174:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 174 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

174 ÷ 2 = 87
