Prime Factors of 3328

Steps to find Prime Factors of 3328 by Division Method

To find the primefactors of 3328 using the division method, follow these steps:

• Step 1. Start dividing 3328 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 3328, which is 2. Divide 3328 by 2 to obtain the quotient (1664).
  3328 ÷ 2 = 1664
• Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (1664).
  1664 ÷ 2 = 832
  832 ÷ 2 = 416
  416 ÷ 2 = 208
  208 ÷ 2 = 104
  104 ÷ 2 = 52
  52 ÷ 2 = 26
  26 ÷ 2 = 13
  13 ÷ 13 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 3328 is, 3328 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 13.

Steps to find Prime Factors of 3328 by Factor Tree Method

We can follow the same procedure using the factor tree of 3328 as shown below:

So, the prime factorization of 3328 is, 3328 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 13.

What does Prime factor in mathematics mean?

Prime numbers, in mathematics are all those whole numbers greater than 1 having exactly two divisors that is 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 3328 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 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 3328 but not a prime factor of 3328.
