Prime Factors of 10101

Steps to find Prime Factors of 10101 by Division Method

To find the primefactors of 10101 using the division method, follow these steps:

• Step 1. Start dividing 10101 by the smallest prime number, i.e., 2, 3, 5, and so on. Find the smallest prime factor of the number.
• Step 2. After finding the smallest prime factor of the number 10101, which is 3. Divide 10101 by 3 to obtain the quotient (3367).
  10101 ÷ 3 = 3367
• Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (3367).
  3367 ÷ 7 = 481
  481 ÷ 13 = 37
  37 ÷ 37 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 10101 is, 10101 = 3 x 7 x 13 x 37.

So, the prime factorization of 10101 is, 10101 = 3 x 7 x 13 x 37.

Introduction to Prime Factors?

In mathematics, prime numbers are defined as all those natural numbers greater than 1 that has only two divisors one being number 1 and the other being the number itself. When we express any number as the products of these prime numbers than these prime numbers become prime factors of that number. Eg- Prime Factors of 10101 are 3 x 7 x 13 x 37.

Properties of Prime Factors

• Prime factors are the set of factors that are unique to the number given.
• 2 is the only even prime factor any number can have.
• Two prime factors are always coprime to each other.
• 1 is neither a prime number nor a composite number and also 1 is the factor of every given number. So, 1 is the factor of 10101 but not a prime factor of 10101.
