Prime Factorization of 357

What is the Prime Factorization of 357?

Answer: Prime Factors of 357: 3, 7, 17

Explanation of number 357 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 357 it is expressing 357 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 357.

Since number 357 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 357, we have to iteratively divide 357 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 357:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 357 without a remainder is 3. So the first calculation step would look like:

357 ÷ 3 = 119

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

119 ÷ 7 = 17

17 ÷ 17 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 357. It is: 3, 7, 17
