Steps to find Prime Factors of 7084 by Division Method

To find the primefactors of 7084 using the division method, follow these steps:

  • Step 1. Start dividing 7084 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 7084, which is 2. Divide 7084 by 2 to obtain the quotient (3542).
    7084 ÷ 2 = 3542
  • Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (3542).
    3542 ÷ 2 = 1771
    1771 ÷ 7 = 253
    253 ÷ 11 = 23
    23 ÷ 23 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 7084 is, 7084 = 2 x 2 x 7 x 11 x 23.

Steps to find Prime Factors of 7084 by Factor Tree Method

We can follow the same procedure using the factor tree of 7084 as shown below:

So, the prime factorization of 7084 is, 7084 = 2 x 2 x 7 x 11 x 23.

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 7084 are 2 x 2 x 7 x 11 x 23.

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 7084 but not a prime factor of 7084.
