Explanation of number 900 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 900 it is expressing 900 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 900.

Since number 900 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 900, we have to iteratively divide 900 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 900:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 900 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

900 ÷ 2 = 450

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

450 ÷ 2 = 225

225 ÷ 3 = 75

75 ÷ 3 = 25

25 ÷ 5 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 900. It is: 2, 2, 3, 3, 5, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 32 × 52
