Explanation of number 956 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 956 it is expressing 956 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 956.

Since number 956 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 956, we have to iteratively divide 956 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 956:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 956 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

956 ÷ 2 = 478

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

478 ÷ 2 = 239

239 ÷ 239 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 956. It is: 2, 2, 239

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 22 × 239
