Steps to find Prime Factors of 1092 by Division Method

To find the primefactors of 1092 using the division method, follow these steps:

  • Step 1. Start dividing 1092 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 1092, which is 2. Divide 1092 by 2 to obtain the quotient (546).
    1092 ÷ 2 = 546
  • Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (546).
    546 ÷ 2 = 273
    273 ÷ 3 = 91
    91 ÷ 7 = 13
    13 ÷ 13 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 1092 is, 1092 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 13.

Steps to find Prime Factors of 1092 by Factor Tree Method

We can follow the same procedure using the factor tree of 1092 as shown below:

So, the prime factorization of 1092 is, 1092 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 13.

How do you define Prime Factors of a number?

Prime numbers, in mathematics are all those natural numbers greater than 1 that have exactly 2 factors which are 1 and the number itself. When we express any number as the product of these prime numbers than these prime numbers become prime factors of that number. Eg- Prime Factors of 1092 are 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 13.

Properties of Prime Factors

  • For any given number there is one and only one set of unique prime factors.
  • Any number can have only 1 even prime factor and that is number 2.
  • Two prime factors are always coprime to each other.
  • 1 is the factor of any given number, but 1 is neither a prime number nor a composite number. So, 1 is the factor of 1092 but not a prime factor of 1092.
