Explanation of number 846 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 846 it is expressing 846 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 846.

Since number 846 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 846, we have to iteratively divide 846 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 846:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 846 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

846 ÷ 2 = 423

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

423 ÷ 3 = 141

141 ÷ 3 = 47

47 ÷ 47 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 846. It is: 2, 3, 3, 47
