Explanation of number 512 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 512 it is expressing 512 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 512.

Since number 512 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 512, we have to iteratively divide 512 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 512:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 512 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

512 ÷ 2 = 256

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

256 ÷ 2 = 128

128 ÷ 2 = 64

64 ÷ 2 = 32

32 ÷ 2 = 16

16 ÷ 2 = 8

8 ÷ 2 = 4

4 ÷ 2 = 2

2 ÷ 2 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 512. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 29
