Explanation of number 63 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 63 it is expressing 63 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 63.

Since number 63 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 63, we have to iteratively divide 63 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 63:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 63 without a remainder is 3. So the first calculation step would look like:

63 ÷ 3 = 21

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

21 ÷ 3 = 7

7 ÷ 7 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 63. It is: 3, 3, 7

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 32 × 7
