Explanation of number 2160 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 2160 it is expressing 2160 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 2160.

Since number 2160 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 2160, we have to iteratively divide 2160 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 2160:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 2160 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

2160 ÷ 2 = 1080

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

1080 ÷ 2 = 540

540 ÷ 2 = 270

270 ÷ 2 = 135

135 ÷ 3 = 45

45 ÷ 3 = 15

15 ÷ 3 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 2160. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 24 × 33 × 5
