Explanation of number 888 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 888 it is expressing 888 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 888.

Since number 888 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 888, we have to iteratively divide 888 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 888:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 888 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

888 ÷ 2 = 444

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

444 ÷ 2 = 222

222 ÷ 2 = 111

111 ÷ 3 = 37

37 ÷ 37 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 888. It is: 2, 2, 2, 3, 37

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 23 × 3 × 37
