Explanation of number 2940 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 2940 it is expressing 2940 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 2940.

Since number 2940 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 2940, we have to iteratively divide 2940 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 2940:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 2940 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

2940 ÷ 2 = 1470

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

1470 ÷ 2 = 735

735 ÷ 3 = 245

245 ÷ 5 = 49

49 ÷ 7 = 7

7 ÷ 7 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 2940. It is: 2, 2, 3, 5, 7, 7

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 3 × 5 × 72
