Explanation of number 232 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 232 it is expressing 232 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 232.

Since number 232 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 232, we have to iteratively divide 232 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 232:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 232 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

232 ÷ 2 = 116

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

116 ÷ 2 = 58

58 ÷ 2 = 29

29 ÷ 29 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 232. It is: 2, 2, 2, 29

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 23 × 29
