Explanation of number 856 Prime Factorization
Prime Factorization of 856 it is expressing 856 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 856.
Since number 856 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.
To get a list of all Prime Factors of 856, we have to iteratively divide 856 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.
Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 856:
The smallest Prime Number which can divide 856 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:
856 ÷ 2 = 428
Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:
428 ÷ 2 = 214
214 ÷ 2 = 107
107 ÷ 107 = 1
Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 856. It is: 2, 2, 2, 107
Or you may also write it in exponential form: 23 × 107
