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 5404 are 2 x 2 x 7 x 193.

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 5404 but not a prime factor of 5404.
