What is prime factorization?

Definition of prime factorization

The prime factorization is the decomposition of a composite number into a product of prime factors that, if multiplied, recreate the original number. Factors by definition are the numbers that multiply to create another number. A prime number is an integer greater than one which is divided only by one and by itself. For example, the only divisors of 7 are 1 and 7, so 7 is a prime number, while the number 72 has divisors deived from 23•32 like 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 ... and 72 itself, making 72 not a prime number. Note the the only "prime" factors of 72 are 2 and 3 which are prime numbers.

Prime factorization example 1

Let's find the prime factorization of 72.

Solution 1

Start with the smallest prime number that divides into 72, in this case 2. We can write 72 as:
72 = 2 x 36
Now find the smallest prime number that divides into 36. Again we can use 2, and write the 36 as 2 x 18, to give.
72 = 2 x 2 x 18
18 also divides by 2 (18 = 2 x 9), so we have:
72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 9
9 divides by 3 (9 = 3 x 3), so we have:
72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
2, 2, 2, 3 and 3 are all prime numbers, so we have our answer.

In short, we would write the solution as:
72 = 2 x 36
72 = 2 x 2 x 18
72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 9
72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
72 = 23 x 32 (prime factorization exponential form)

Solution 2

Using a factor tree:

(Video) Prime Factorization | Math with Mr. J

  • Procedure:
  • Find 2 factors of the number;
  • Look at the 2 factors and determine if at least one of them is not prime;
  • If it is not a prime factor it;
  • Repeat this process until all factors are prime.

See how to factor the number 72:


72
/\
236
/\
218
/\
29
/\
33
72 is not prime --> divide by 2

36 is not prime --> divide by 2

18 is not prime --> divide by 2

9 is not prime --> divide by 3

3 and 3 are prime --> stop

Taking the left-hand numbers and the right-most number of the last row (dividers) an multiplying then, we have

72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

72 = 23 x 32 (prime factorization exponential form)

Note that these dividers are the prime factors. They are also called the leaves of the factor tree.

588 is not prime --> divide by 2

294 is not prime --> divide by 2

147 is not prime --> divide by 3

49 is not prime --> divide by 7

7 and 7 are prime --> stop

Taking the left-hand numbers and the right-most number of the last row (dividers) an multiplying then, we have

588 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 7
588 = 22 x 3 x 72 (prime factorization exponential form)
