Your Input

Find the prime factorization of $$$3441$$$.

Solution

Start with the number $$$2$$$.

Determine whether $$$3441$$$ is divisible by $$$2$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$3$$$.

Determine whether $$$3441$$$ is divisible by $$$3$$$.

It is divisible, thus, divide $$$3441$$$ by $$${\color{green}3}$$$: $$$\frac{3441}{3} = {\color{red}1147}$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$3$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$5$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$5$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$7$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$7$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$11$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$11$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$13$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$13$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$17$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$17$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$19$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$19$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$23$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$23$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$29$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$29$$$.

Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.

The next prime number is $$$31$$$.

Determine whether $$$1147$$$ is divisible by $$$31$$$.

It is divisible, thus, divide $$$1147$$$ by $$${\color{green}31}$$$: $$$\frac{1147}{31} = {\color{red}37}$$$.

The prime number $$${\color{green}37}$$$ has no other factors then $$$1$$$ and $$${\color{green}37}$$$: $$$\frac{37}{37} = {\color{red}1}$$$.

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: $$$3441 = 3 \cdot 31 \cdot 37$$$.

Answer

The prime factorization is $$$3441 = 3 \cdot 31 \cdot 37$$$A.
