What does Prime factor of a number mean?

A prime number in mathematics is defined as any natural number greater than 1, that is not divisible by any number except 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 379 are 379.

Properties of Prime Factors

  • For any given number there is one and only one set of unique prime factors.
  • 2 is the only even prime number. So, any given number can have only one even prime factor and that is 2.
  • Two prime factors of a given number 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 379 but not a prime factor of 379.
