Prime Factors of 7203

Steps to find Prime Factors of 7203 by Division Method

To find the primefactors of 7203 using the division method, follow these steps:

• Step 1. Start dividing 7203 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 7203, which is 3. Divide 7203 by 3 to obtain the quotient (2401).
  7203 ÷ 3 = 2401
• Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (2401).
  2401 ÷ 7 = 343
  343 ÷ 7 = 49
  49 ÷ 7 = 7
  7 ÷ 7 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 7203 is, 7203 = 3 x 7 x 7 x 7 x 7.

So, the prime factorization of 7203 is, 7203 = 3 x 7 x 7 x 7 x 7.

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 7203 are 3 x 7 x 7 x 7 x 7.

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 7203 but not a prime factor of 7203.
