Steps to find Prime Factors of 779 by Division Method

To find the primefactors of 779 using the division method, follow these steps:

  • Step 1. Start dividing 779 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 779, which is 19. Divide 779 by 19 to obtain the quotient (41).
    779 ÷ 19 = 41
  • Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (41).
    41 ÷ 41 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 779 is, 779 = 19 x 41.

Steps to find Prime Factors of 779 by Factor Tree Method

So, the prime factorization of 779 is, 779 = 19 x 41.

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 779 are 19 x 41.

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 779 but not a prime factor of 779.
