Explanation of number 468 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 468 it is expressing 468 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 468.

Since number 468 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 468, we have to iteratively divide 468 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 468:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 468 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

468 ÷ 2 = 234

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

234 ÷ 2 = 117

117 ÷ 3 = 39

39 ÷ 3 = 13

13 ÷ 13 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 468. It is: 2, 2, 3, 3, 13

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 32 × 13
