Explanation of number 48000 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 48000 it is expressing 48000 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 48000.

Since number 48000 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 48000, we have to iteratively divide 48000 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 48000:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 48000 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

48000 ÷ 2 = 24000

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

24000 ÷ 2 = 12000

12000 ÷ 2 = 6000

6000 ÷ 2 = 3000

3000 ÷ 2 = 1500

1500 ÷ 2 = 750

750 ÷ 2 = 375

375 ÷ 3 = 125

125 ÷ 5 = 25

25 ÷ 5 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 48000. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 5, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 27 × 3 × 53
