Explanation of number 5040 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 5040 it is expressing 5040 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 5040.

Since number 5040 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 5040, we have to iteratively divide 5040 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 5040:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 5040 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

5040 ÷ 2 = 2520

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

2520 ÷ 2 = 1260

1260 ÷ 2 = 630

630 ÷ 2 = 315

315 ÷ 3 = 105

105 ÷ 3 = 35

35 ÷ 5 = 7

7 ÷ 7 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 5040. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 5, 7

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 24 × 32 × 5 × 7
