Explanation of number 5880 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 5880 it is expressing 5880 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 5880.

Since number 5880 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 5880, we have to iteratively divide 5880 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 5880:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 5880 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

5880 ÷ 2 = 2940

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

2940 ÷ 2 = 1470

1470 ÷ 2 = 735

735 ÷ 3 = 245

245 ÷ 5 = 49

49 ÷ 7 = 7

7 ÷ 7 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 5880. It is: 2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 7, 7

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 23 × 3 × 5 × 72
