Prime factorization of $$$3535$$$
Your Input
Find the prime factorization of $$$3535$$$.
Solution
Start with the number $$$2$$$.
Determine whether $$$3535$$$ is divisible by $$$2$$$.
Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.
The next prime number is $$$3$$$.
Determine whether $$$3535$$$ is divisible by $$$3$$$.
Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.
The next prime number is $$$5$$$.
Determine whether $$$3535$$$ is divisible by $$$5$$$.
It is divisible, thus, divide $$$3535$$$ by $$${\color{green}5}$$$: $$$\frac{3535}{5} = {\color{red}707}$$$.
Determine whether $$$707$$$ is divisible by $$$5$$$.
Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.
The next prime number is $$$7$$$.
Determine whether $$$707$$$ is divisible by $$$7$$$.
It is divisible, thus, divide $$$707$$$ by $$${\color{green}7}$$$: $$$\frac{707}{7} = {\color{red}101}$$$.
The prime number $$${\color{green}101}$$$ has no other factors then $$$1$$$ and $$${\color{green}101}$$$: $$$\frac{101}{101} = {\color{red}1}$$$.
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: $$$3535 = 5 \cdot 7 \cdot 101$$$.
Answer
The prime factorization is $$$3535 = 5 \cdot 7 \cdot 101$$$A.
