Explanation of number 852 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 852 it is expressing 852 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 852.

Since number 852 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 852, we have to iteratively divide 852 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 852:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 852 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

852 ÷ 2 = 426

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

426 ÷ 2 = 213

213 ÷ 3 = 71

71 ÷ 71 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 852. It is: 2, 2, 3, 71

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 3 × 71
