Find Prime Factors



This page will compute a number's Prime Factors and show how it is done.

A Prime Number is a number which can only be divided by 1 and itself.

A Composite Number is a number that has more than two factors other than 1 and itself.

All Composite Numbers can be factored into prime numbers.

Example:  The Prime Factors of 45 are:  3, 3, 5    Note that: 3 * 3 * 5  =  45

Note:   0 and 1 are the only numbers that are neither Composite nor Prime.
