Prime Factorization of 510

What is the Prime Factorization of 510?

Answer: Prime Factors of 510: 2, 3, 5, 17

Explanation of number 510 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 510 it is expressing 510 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 510.

Since number 510 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 510, we have to iteratively divide 510 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 510:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 510 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

510 ÷ 2 = 255

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

255 ÷ 3 = 85

85 ÷ 5 = 17

17 ÷ 17 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 510. It is: 2, 3, 5, 17
