Your Input

Find the prime factorization of $$$453$$$.

Solution

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

Determine whether $$$453$$$ is divisible by $$$2$$$.

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

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

Determine whether $$$453$$$ is divisible by $$$3$$$.

It is divisible, thus, divide $$$453$$$ by $$${\color{green}3}$$$: $$$\frac{453}{3} = {\color{red}151}$$$.

The prime number $$${\color{green}151}$$$ has no other factors then $$$1$$$ and $$${\color{green}151}$$$: $$$\frac{151}{151} = {\color{red}1}$$$.

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: $$$453 = 3 \cdot 151$$$.

Answer

The prime factorization is $$$453 = 3 \cdot 151$$$A.
