Explanation of number 508 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 508 it is expressing 508 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 508.

Since number 508 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 508, we have to iteratively divide 508 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 508:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 508 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

508 ÷ 2 = 254

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

254 ÷ 2 = 127

127 ÷ 127 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 508. It is: 2, 2, 127

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 127
