Explanation of number 432 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 432 it is expressing 432 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 432.

Since number 432 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 432, we have to iteratively divide 432 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 432:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 432 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

432 ÷ 2 = 216

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

216 ÷ 2 = 108

108 ÷ 2 = 54

54 ÷ 2 = 27

27 ÷ 3 = 9

9 ÷ 3 = 3

3 ÷ 3 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 432. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 24 × 33
