Prime Factors of 1116

Steps to find Prime Factors of 1116 by Division Method

To find the primefactors of 1116 using the division method, follow these steps:

• Step 1. Start dividing 1116 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 1116, which is 2. Divide 1116 by 2 to obtain the quotient (558).
  1116 ÷ 2 = 558
• Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (558).
  558 ÷ 2 = 279
  279 ÷ 3 = 93
  93 ÷ 3 = 31
  31 ÷ 31 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 1116 is, 1116 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 31.

So, the prime factorization of 1116 is, 1116 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 31.

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 1116 are 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 31.

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 1116 but not a prime factor of 1116.
