Explanation of number 3960 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 3960 it is expressing 3960 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 3960.

Since number 3960 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 3960, we have to iteratively divide 3960 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 3960:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 3960 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

3960 ÷ 2 = 1980

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

1980 ÷ 2 = 990

990 ÷ 2 = 495

495 ÷ 3 = 165

165 ÷ 3 = 55

55 ÷ 5 = 11

11 ÷ 11 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 3960. It is: 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 5, 11

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 23 × 32 × 5 × 11
