Explanation of number 612 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 612 it is expressing 612 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 612.

Since number 612 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 612, we have to iteratively divide 612 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 612:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 612 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

612 ÷ 2 = 306

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

306 ÷ 2 = 153

153 ÷ 3 = 51

51 ÷ 3 = 17

17 ÷ 17 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 612. It is: 2, 2, 3, 3, 17

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 32 × 17
