Prime factorization calculator

Guys i am here to show you how you can use Prime Factorization calculator using short division method. You are aware of division method right, as you have learn t it in your KG classes. Well guys lets learn a new concept.

In this method we need to start with the first prime number '2' look if the number is divisible by 2 and it is then you need to use the short division method to divide it by 2.

Look at the answer you get. Try if it is still divisible by 2, try this until you get a number which is not divisible by 2. You need to continue this with other prime numbers also until you get an answer that is prime number. These numbers will be the prime factorization written in the proper order.

As i suggested you earlier, you can try working on Prime Factorization worksheets as they really work in improving your knowledge.
