Step 1
To write any number as a product of its ' factors, we should find all those ' numbers which when multiplied together form the number. Note that in such factorization, ' numbers can get repeated as well, but what is important is that
(1) all numbers are '
(2) and their product is given number
Hence, we should divide the given number consistently by ' numbers starting with 2, which is first ' number and continue till all factors are ' numbers.
Before we try this for given number 720, let us list first few ' numbers, which are { 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 , 17 , 19 , 23 , 29 , ... }
Step 2
Now 720
2 × 360 (and as 360 can be divided by 2 again)
2 × 2 × 180
2 × 2 × 2 × 90
2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 45
2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 15
2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5
As now we have all ' factors, the process is complete and ' factors of 720 are 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5
