Explanation of number 2880 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 2880 it is expressing 2880 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 2880.

Since number 2880 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 2880, we have to iteratively divide 2880 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 2880:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 2880 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

2880 ÷ 2 = 1440

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

1440 ÷ 2 = 720

720 ÷ 2 = 360

360 ÷ 2 = 180

180 ÷ 2 = 90

90 ÷ 2 = 45

45 ÷ 3 = 15

15 ÷ 3 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 2880. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 26 × 32 × 5
