Explanation of number 729 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 729 it is expressing 729 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 729.

Since number 729 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 729, we have to iteratively divide 729 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 729:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 729 without a remainder is 3. So the first calculation step would look like:

729 ÷ 3 = 243

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

243 ÷ 3 = 81

81 ÷ 3 = 27

27 ÷ 3 = 9

9 ÷ 3 = 3

3 ÷ 3 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 729. It is: 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 36
