Explanation of number 600 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 600 it is expressing 600 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 600.

Since number 600 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 600, we have to iteratively divide 600 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 600:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 600 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

600 ÷ 2 = 300

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

300 ÷ 2 = 150

150 ÷ 2 = 75

75 ÷ 3 = 25

25 ÷ 5 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 600. It is: 2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 23 × 3 × 52
