Prime Factorization of 221

What is the Prime Factorization of 221?

Answer: Prime Factors of 221: 13, 17

Explanation of number 221 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 221 it is expressing 221 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 221.

Since number 221 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 221, we have to iteratively divide 221 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 221:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 221 without a remainder is 13. So the first calculation step would look like:

221 ÷ 13 = 17

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

17 ÷ 17 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 221. It is: 13, 17
