Explanation of number 576 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 576 it is expressing 576 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 576.

Since number 576 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 576, we have to iteratively divide 576 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 576:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 576 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

576 ÷ 2 = 288

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

288 ÷ 2 = 144

144 ÷ 2 = 72

72 ÷ 2 = 36

36 ÷ 2 = 18

18 ÷ 2 = 9

9 ÷ 3 = 3

3 ÷ 3 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 576. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 26 × 32
