Explanation of number 981 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 981 it is expressing 981 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 981.

Since number 981 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 981, we have to iteratively divide 981 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 981:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 981 without a remainder is 3. So the first calculation step would look like:

981 ÷ 3 = 327

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

327 ÷ 3 = 109

109 ÷ 109 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 981. It is: 3, 3, 109

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 32 × 109
