Prime factorization of $$$1082$$$
Your Input
Find the prime factorization of $$$1082$$$.
Solution
Start with the number $$$2$$$.
Determine whether $$$1082$$$ is divisible by $$$2$$$.
It is divisible, thus, divide $$$1082$$$ by $$${\color{green}2}$$$: $$$\frac{1082}{2} = {\color{red}541}$$$.
The prime number $$${\color{green}541}$$$ has no other factors then $$$1$$$ and $$${\color{green}541}$$$: $$$\frac{541}{541} = {\color{red}1}$$$.
Since we have obtained $$$1$$$, we are done.
Now, just count the number of occurences of the divisors (green numbers), and write down the prime factorization: $$$1082 = 2 \cdot 541$$$.
Answer
The prime factorization is $$$1082 = 2 \cdot 541$$$A.
