Explanation of number 212 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 212 it is expressing 212 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 212.

Since number 212 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 212, we have to iteratively divide 212 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 212:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 212 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

212 ÷ 2 = 106

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

106 ÷ 2 = 53

53 ÷ 53 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 212. It is: 2, 2, 53

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 53
